Tibetan Medical Paradigms for the SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic
Understanding COVID-19, Microbiome Links, and Its Sowa Rigpa Nosology
Book •
This work by Tawni Tidwell outlines how Tibetan medical frameworks (Sowa Rigpa) interpret and respond to the SARS‑CoV‑2 pandemic, linking traditional nosology to contemporary biomedical concerns including microbiome relationships.
Tidwell analyzes how Tibetan diagnostic categories map onto modern COVID‑19 symptomatology and how herbal and clinical approaches were adapted.
The piece situates Tibetan responses within broader public health contexts and explores possibilities for integrative collaboration.
It offers case studies and reflections on translational research between traditional medicine and biomedical science.
The work aims to inform both practitioners and researchers interested in cross-cultural medical responses to pandemic conditions.
