Are you saying the Madagascans do not have regulatory bodies also? Are you saying the President would not have tested the drugs to atleast see its positive effect against covid without causing problems to other systems of the body?

There will always be stupid people who will consume drugs indiscriminately, whether or not there is scientific backing.

The content as we've been made to know is purely herbal (at most), same herbs we have in different variants of agbo in the African Society.

Should we now downplay the likelihood of it being effective just because Europe has not green stamped it?

@bolded. This is the statement from the country's medical academy: “It is a medicine for which scientific evidence has not yet been established, and which risks damaging the health of the population, in particular that of children”

There is no evidence that it passed through any clinical trial or regulatory process before the president went and announced and directing school pupils to "sip daily to prevent covid-19"

What the president did what reckless and irresponsible. It was nothing more than a cheap popularity gimmick.

Honestly it is shocking and dismaying seeing otherwise educated folks supporting this open mockery.

There's still no proof that they haven't lied to you about previous cases.


That's why sane people (not the educated illiterates) are calling for clinical trials and scientific confirmations.

No sense found...

See honest people!

They could have lied just to keep promoting their remedy.. But they came out straight.

Nigeria �� comes to mind smh

Just so u know Rwanda, Uganda & CAR have almost the same cases as Madagascar with 0 deaths but are not using the remedy.

Their herbal remedy have been poisoned by their enemies. If Bill Gates can bribe with millions of Dollars wat else is not possible?

They will fight Madagascar to the death.

Will the antidote defeat, without a fatal side effect, Covid-19 in the body of that skinny little warrior who has fought sickle cell anemia from conception?

Will the antidote fight, without a deadly side effect, this novel strain of Coronavirus in the system of that mother of five who has been diagnosed of coronary artery disease?

What about that undergraduate who has HIV and swallows a pill of zidovudine daily ? Will she be able to combine the Covid-19 antidote with her antiretroviral therapy ?

Will the antidote cause patients who use it to develop resistance to other drugs?

Is a proposed cure even the cure?

To ascertain and answer the questions above ,an antidote must pass through organized stages to be certified a cure.

Emotional outbursts and conspiracy theories do not provide solutions . Only well funded research , studies and good scientific development processes do.

Africans are enamored with magic, instead of doing science. Who said herbal medicince cannot be turned into science? Those who like to cling to the shadows of mysticism aka magic aka juju.

Central African Republich and Vietnam have 327 and 320 cases, respectively. These numbers are higher than Madagascar's 304, and yet those two countries have not recorded any Coro-death. And that is in the absence of Madagascar's sentiment-based marketed agbo.

what an honest government

winterfell007:
Why haven't their so called cure worked for them. When WHO was telling them that their cure failed clinical trial, they were shouting conspiracy theories up and down. Nonsense

Now conspiracy theorists will shift the goal post

Have you read the contents/ingredients of this remedy?

Here's a report from the country also

The herbal remedy is produced from artemisia, a plant with proven efficacy against malaria, and other indigenous herbs, according to the Malagasy Institute of Applied Research, which developed the beverage.
.

It is now marketed in bottles as a herbal tea, while Rajoelina has said clinical trials are under way in Madagascar to produce a form that can be injected into the body.

Farki:


Well the government mainly funds research into tropical diseases so they obviously weren't prepared for Covid-19.

Private individuals are trying to develop their own vaccine.

No country was prepared for this pandemic!
Yet there are a lot of other countries lower than us that are faring better (test capacity and all).

But those calling for clinical trials can buy the drug and conduct any form of test needed to ascertain there fears..at least you have your evidence

Won't waste a second of my time explaining again.

Are you tired . Even if you spend the whole of 2020 to explain, since there is already a warped and closed mindset, it will amount to nothing. There are still millions who do not even believe there is Covid-19 in Nigeria. When you show them pictures they demand for video. When you show them video they say what the person really is suffering is malaria . It is a waste of time trying to explain anything to them.
When Trump touted chloroquine they all hailed it. But when Nigeria started using chloroquine as part of Covid-19 treatment the same people started shouting oh it's malaria they are treating not coronavirus. They are better ignored. But sincerely their open display of stupidity irks the sensibility of all sane and truly educated individuals.

So?
The ones that have died in Nigeria also have some underlying illnesses.

Yep! Underlying illnesses

June15:


Diabetes and high blood pressure related to covid-19??

Olodo, covid 19 make the underlying ailment worse

NCDC be lyk

SirWarlock:
Pictures please

You love seeing dead people abi??

Kwantinuu!

Acidosis:

Have you seen the recent backlash on Buhari, PTF and Experts on the front page? Majority of Nigerians do not care about scientific scrutiny.
The photo below is what experts warned against. See how grown men are drinking a supposed Covid19 cure (an antimalarial ingredient) without confirming their status.That's like drinking as much as 15 tablets of Artesunate even when you have no symptoms of malaria. Desperate and misinformed acts like this could cause drug resistance. But illiteracy always have a way of making us feel the world and other special forces are against us.

Must Africa Depend On Foreign Organisations To Do That For Us? I'll Advise We Start Trusting Our Products And Mind You The WHO Wasn't Ready To Test The Herbal Cure For Covid 19. We Know They Will Never Give A Green Light Because It's Coming From Third World Country,the Whole World Is Depending On A Cure And This Could Be It.God Bless Africa

DamnnNiggarr:


Damn Niggarr

What about that their concoction??

But on the second thought, these people may be honest to an extent

Not everyone can survive covid-19 even with the best remedy. Some people have preexisting health conditions and covid-19 is just jara for them.

GodPunishBiafra:


That's inevitable..



People still die from malaria and cough too even though we have many effective medications for them.

tru talk

Would you like to try my beniseed plus bambala nuts treatment? I've cured 40 covid-19 patients with it!!

Strictly local herbs. No side effects, nothing. 100% cure rate!!

But unfortunately the useless unpatriotic govt, WHO, etc refuse to accept it.

But we should all learn to promote made in Africa.


*Sigh

Would you like an education on the concept of "Sarcasm" sir??!...

oga that is what everyone has been calling for, that the herbal drug be subjected to scientific test like every other drug, but what we have had is mostly outright dismissal, which is not good.
