The story is adapted from a true story. So, which of the above two situations is the truth? On one side is the huge medical system, on the other side is the vast population of patients. Who is right and who is wrong? Unfortunately, the reality is that there is no clear-cut correct answer. Just as some doctors prescribe unnecessary drugs to patients in order to make more money, and some patients make trouble in the hospital frequently, even at the mercy of doctors. The doctor-patient relationship has always been a complicated cycle. If you only lean to one side, just complaining about low-quality patients from the doctor's point of view, or attacking low-quality doctors only from the patient's point of view, can only intensify the contradiction, but cannot solve the problem from a practical point of view.
By extension, this is the title: narratives are easy to write, but argumentative essays are difficult to write. (This sentence comes from Yangzhong. Since that chat, I have been pondering this sentence, and my thoughts after watching this movie happened to match this sentence) The
world is like this. Narratives can move people's hearts most, but to really solve problems, essays are still needed. Since ancient times, all kinds of novels and articles in Southern Weekend have been narratives, allowing readers to feel the ins and outs of something from a certain angle, but narratives often lack other angles and other viewpoints. Like this movie, it completely ignores the painstaking efforts of medical workers in the development of AZT drugs and the strong financial support of the parent company behind it. Such narratives can only arouse people's attention to this matter, but they cannot help solve practical problems.
How to write an argumentative essay? Take the subject of this movie as an example. It is about investigating the side effects of drugs approved by the FDA. It is necessary to investigate how many people are like male protagonists. It is necessary to investigate how these people smuggle drugs from overseas. It is necessary to investigate this black market. To investigate how the doctor decides which medicine to give, to investigate whether the FDA and the drug company are inextricably linked...
Oh my God, there are so many investigations!
This is the price of argumentation. For most people, after reading this narrative, they sigh for the male protagonist's desire and ability to survive, and then scold the doctors for their low medical ethics, which is probably the limit of their thinking. This is probably why public opinion can always be easily manipulated. Of course, this is already another topic.
