Thai traditional medicine popularity surges amidst covid-19 crisis

 

the covid crisis ended a long long time ago. 

Never was a real/true crisis from the start......instead, highly manufactured to be as such. 

Most, if not all, were forced to be suckered in and conned.

It's also worth noting, the Thai medical establishment here, even the mainstream parts, doesn't exactly have an unblemished credibility record when it comes to COVID treatments, even the non-herbal ones.

 

The Thai medical establishment kept flogging and prescribing the medication favipiravir as a frontline COVID treatment long after the country where it was developed (Japan) ceased using it for COVID, and many other countries, including the major ones like the U.S. and the UK, never approved or authorized favipiravir (Avigan) as a COVID treatment, because there never was a sufficient body of credible evidence to support its use.

Japan's Fujifilm stops work on Avigan as COVID drug

TOKYO, Oct 14 (Reuters) - Fujifilm Holdings Corp (4901.T) has ended development of its anti-influenza drug Avigan to treat COVID-19, the firm said on Friday, after more than two years of work on a pill once hailed as Japan's biggest contribution to the global coronavirus fight.

...

Subsequent analysis of data from 84 people enrolled in the trial showed no significant results, the company said in a statement on Friday.

...

But studies in Japan were inconclusive, leading domestic regulators to hold off on approval, partly because data from animal studies showed it could lead to birth defects.
