The Ministry of Health yesterday issued a report denying claims on social media regarding the use of traditional Khmer medicine to prevent the chikungunya outbreak or treat the infection. Or Vandine, spokeswoman for the Health Ministry said people should dismiss false information that traditional Khmer medicine can cure the chikungunya infection.

 

For example, one of the false natural treatments posted on Facebook is to drink Khmer natural ingredients including the mixture of banana, green herbs and coconut juice.

“The Ministry of Health would like to completely reject such a spread of information and also urges the competent authorities to take legal action on the matter,” she said. The ministry was referring to two posts on Facebook made on Tuesday by separate accounts. The posts were also shared widely on the platform. The Facebook accounts were named as Sen Sayana and Spai Kdaob and the posts have since been taken down in an effort to prevent legal action.
