MEBO A Simpler Way to Save Lives
On May 7, 1990 Newsweek magazine published an article
entitled "A Simpler Way
to Save Lives Could a New Medication from China Change
the World's Approach to Treating Burn Injuries?" stating,
"Doctors have made immense progress in treating severe burns over the
past few decades……
One would expect future progress to consist of refinement, not all-out
revolution.
But if a new Chinese treatment fulfills its initial promise, much of
modern burn therapy could be rendered instantly obsolete.
The new remedy (MEBO)
not only eases the pain of burn injuries, according to the proponents,
but speeds healing, reduces scarring and drastically cuts the cost of
saving lives. The ostensible breakthrough is still years from
general use in this country.
But it is
already changing clinical practice in China."
