Experts Appeal to Build "Green Channel" for Medical Exchange
Song Shanjun, a renowned expert in blood disease and tutor of doctors, who had just successfully accomplished the first non-genetic marrow transplant operation of non-consanguineous people in cooperation with a Taiwanese marrow transplantation center, expressed that through the operation, medical experts across the Taiwan Straits all deeply felt that it's the good fortune and common desire of both patients and doctors across the Straits to build a "Direct Flight Green Channel for Medical Exchange" as soon as possible.
Professor Song, a rare authority on blood disease in China, is leading the blood disease research center of Wuhan Union Hospital, one of China's most famous research institutes in the study of this disease. The research institute has close contact and cooperation with a famous marrow donation center under the leadership of Doctor Lee Tsung-dao, an internationally famous specialist on blood disease. The two parties are planning to jointly establish the first marrow bank in central China, and have successfully matched four pairs of marrow contributor and receiver and accomplished the first such operation recently.
Doctor Song said that the match rate of the blood types is high for we are all compatriots of the same roots and the only pity is that the marrow donated has to be transited through Hong Kong. It, to a great extent, wastes a lot of time, harms the vitality of the marrow and the lower the success rate of the operation.
He also said he and Dr. Lee both deeply felt that it is most desirable if China's mainland and Taiwan would build a straight flight green channel for medical exchange.
