The World Health Organization (WHO) has caution the world not to trust any local untested drug for covid-19.
This came up at a point when three president of different countries made an order of huge
quantities of the herbal tonic which the president of Madagascar claims can cure the virus.
But its efficacy has not been proven by scientific peer reviews, not even national medical academy by Madagascar cause they doubt on it.
WHO in a press statement said;
It will welcome the use of traditional medicines in the search for potential treatments but it warns that they must first be robustly tested.
Andry Rajoelina President of Madagascar launched a product based on the artemisia plant
Last month when it had been tested on fewer than 20 people.
Claims clinical trials begins a week from now.
