Chinese medicine is not science

Chinese medicine is a medicine. Nobody says it is science. I have never heard it being called "Chinese medical science".  But, on the other hand, "medical science", "biomedical science", "biological science" is so commonly abused, and every biologist is eager to label himself as a scientist (like Mr. Fang).  I don't know much about medicine or biology.  I know "computer science" is a misnomer, it is not science.  Ask anyone who works on "computer science".  S/he would say, "yeh, that's kind of misleading..."  Is (western) medicine or biology true science?  I don't know.
