However, Peter State is not Texas, and the United States is not a celestial dynasty. As a result, gangster Ron Woodruff became an anti-system hero. In the United States, the system of belief is inherently evil, and we must always be vigilant. Once a citizen wins in the confrontation system, even a partial victory will surely be regarded as a hero. Ron Woodruff was a tragic hero, even though his methods were gray, and in the end he was defeated in the confrontation with himself, and finally died.
In the 1980s, AIDS had just been officially named. On June 5, 1981, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published 5 cases of AIDS in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly. This was the first official record of AIDS in the world. In 1982, this disease was named "AIDS". In the early days of AIDS, the medical community didn't know much about the disease, and there was no cure, and the infected had to tortured to death. Until the first dawn at the end of 1995, the cocktail therapy and extensive application invented by Chinese-American scientist Dayi He delayed the onset of disease for most infected people, and the mortality rate began to drop sharply. But as of the 2010s, scientists were still conducting a lot of research and clinical experiments, hoping to find a way to cure it as soon as possible. In other words, so far, the global medical community has not yet found the best therapy.
"Dallas Buyers Club" is adapted from real events and tells about the self-help of an AIDS patient and the process of his rescue from 1986 to 1992. This American man is Ron Woodruff. He was diagnosed with AIDS in 1986 and was told by a doctor to have only 30 days of life. In the United States at that time, the drug AZT was the only AIDS treatment drug that was legally approved by the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration), but Ron Woodruff found that AZT was not effective on him. Furthermore, he discovered that AZT is the same for all patients. It only has a little effect when taken, but once the effect is over, the condition will worsen. AZT has huge side effects. Simply taking it will not only cure the disease. On the contrary, it will end the patient's life prematurely because of powerful side effects. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that AZT is a "poison".
Ron Woodruff refused to take AZT anymore and actively sought self-help. Finally, he found a doctor in an illegal hospital in Mexico and took his formula to take a series of existing drugs, such as vitamins and anti-infectives. , To carry out the early "cocktail therapy". After successfully surviving for 30 days, Woodruff not only did not die, but his body also recovered to a certain extent. Therefore, Woodruff set up a business of smuggling medicines from Mexico, on the one hand to make money for himself, on the other hand, to treat other AIDS patients. However, some of the medicines Woodruff took were not recognized by the FDA and belonged to contraband, which gave Woodruff's behavior an unlawful cloak.
However, the US legal system follows the principle of "freedom without explicit prohibition". Being illegal does not mean that it is illegal. In fact, China strictly abides by the law to a large extent. The most typical one is the determination of "rape." According to China's criminal law, the crime of rape refers to the use of violence, coercion or other means against a woman’s will. The act of forcibly having sex with women. What needs to be pointed out here is that it is necessary to have sex to constitute a crime, and having sex means that the man’s rhizome is inserted into the woman’s vulva before the crime is completed, otherwise it can only constitute indecent assault and not rape. Simply put, penetration is rape, otherwise it can only be molested. The penalties of the two are quite different, so a distance of a few centimeters can cause a gap of several years in terms of imprisonment, and even the difference between the current period and the death penalty. The rigor of Chinese law is still very strict in this respect. Of course, this is a long way off. The drugs smuggled by Ron Woodruff are illegal because the FDA has not approved it, but Woodruff insists that non-approval does not mean that it is illegal, and the American judge has nothing to do with him. But as far as the authorities are concerned, they can also be investigated and harassed from taxation and other aspects. And Ron Woodruff has also been seeking various forms of confrontation.
In this confrontation between Ron Woodruff and the American system, he helped many AIDS patients. At the same time, he himself lived from 1986 to 1992, which was 2557 days longer than the 30-day life determined by the doctor. Lived for 7 years. Under his insistence, correspondingly, research in the medical field finally recognized "cocktail therapy" and finally launched the official "cocktail therapy", which was the therapy invented and launched by Professor Dayi He in 1996. . However, 4 years have passed since Woodruff's death. A patient who has become a doctor for a long time, Woodruff can be regarded as the forerunner of "cocktail therapy".
The handsome guy Matthew McConaughey reduced his body shape as a magician, and on the basis of being thin and barely recognizing him, he was superbly interpreting that except for the AIDS patient Ron Woodruff, he has already won the Golden Globe Award. Next, the Oscar statuette was already beckoning to him shiningly. Although I haven't seen the works of several other competitors, McConaughey's performance in this film definitely deserves the honor he deserves.
