First Published: 21st of April, 2021 by Patrick Carpen.

From April 1, 2020, the Government of Vietnam officially announced the 15-day “golden” time to overcome the pandemic. The Vietnamese Ministry of Health recommends that the Prime Minister continue to restrict the gathering of people, allowing civil servants to work from home, unless necessary; tightening the closures of restaurants; stop public transport until April 15; forced to wear a mask when on the street and limit going out. This is the “war” of the entire Vietnamese people, each Vietnamese is a soldier fighting to achieve the ultimate victory.

Let’s travel to Vietnam: a country with a population of over 95 million that borders China. Vietnam has had 0 Covid deaths for the last 9 months, a total of 2,800 Covid-19 cases since the start of the pandemic to now, and only 35 deaths as result of Covid-19 complications since the start of the pandemic to now. Yes, you read that right. Read it again if necessary.

Vietnam recorded its first Covid cases in March 2020, but since then, the average infection rate had been about 5 new cases per day. Furthermore, since the start of pandemic, Vietnam has only had Covid-19 related deaths in the months of August and early September. After then, the curve flattened and has remained so till today. For the last nine months and counting, Vietnam has had 0 Covid-19 deaths and an average of 3 new cases per day.

So what did Vietnam do right, or what did they do that most of the world is not doing? Yes, the Vietnam government did shut down all its airports and restricted border travels at the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. Yes, the Vietnamese government did impose a very tight curfew and the Vietnamese people practiced social distancing. Further, more intensive screening and temperature checks was carried out in Vietnam than most other countries.

But in addition to all that, another thing that Vietnam is topping the world on is the use of herbal medicines to fight the Covid-19 virus. Of course, herbs are most effective, and sometimes only effective, at the initial stages of a viral or bacterial infection. On this note, the Vietnamese Health Ministry has been officially using herbs to treat Covid-19 patients who are in the initial stages of Covid-19 infection.

Before the epidemic of Covid-19 epidemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, in the absence of a specific drug, it was clear that the combination of Western and Oriental medicine was an effective way to find a regimen. the best treatment. On March 17, the Ministry of Health issued Official Letter 1306 / BYT-YDCT, clearly stating: It is necessary to strengthen prevention and control of acute respiratory infections caused by SARS-CoV-2 with drugs and ancient medical methods. transmission.

vietnamese media –

If you say that herbs can treat or cure Covid-19, you’ll be at war with the World Health Organization, the Big Pharma money printing machine, and all their cohorts. You could be held responsible for the deaths of many so you better take back your word by putting a disclaimer at the bottom.

Doctor, physician Phung Tuan Giang, President of the Vietnam Traditional Medicine and Pharmacy Development Research Institute shared the remedy “the antidote to the main remedy.” Traditional medicine attaches great importance to disease prevention, so it is very important to increase natural antibodies and strengthen beneficial bacteria, used for disease prevention, suspected and isolated people, the elderly. weak with chronic diseases.

Sharing the same point of view, Dr. Phung Tuan Giang, Chairman of the Vietnam Traditional Medicine and Pharmacy Development Research Institute, shares and uses herbal drinks or remedies from Covid- 19 which is very effective in the current period. These medicinal herbs have the effect of detoxifying, eliminating inflammation, and boosting immunity. Traditional medicine attaches great importance to disease prevention, so it is very important to increase natural antibodies and strengthen beneficial bacteria, used for disease prevention, suspected and isolated people, the elderly and those weak with chronic diseases.

Herbs contain chemical compounds that both strengthen the immune system and destroy viruses and bacteria. But of course, “there is no scientific evidence to substantiate these claims,” so herbal products “have not been approved by the FDA.”

Madagascar, a poor African country with a population over 25,000,000, have concocted and used a herbal treatment for Covid with some degree of success. They have recorded a total of about 33,000 covid cases and 500 deaths to date. Proportionally speaking, that’s way better than the US with over 31,000,000 cases and over 500,000 deaths. The United States is considered a “first world” country, by the way, and was supposed to have state of the art medical equipment and a world class heathcare system.
