Are cow dung and urine the next big thing in COVID-19 prevention? In parts of India, traditional remedies rooted in Ayurveda are gaining popularity as people seek ways to ward off the virus. Ram Mangal Das, a cow shelter owner in Delhi, swears by cow excrement as a means to boost immunity against COVID-19. Not far behind, G. D. Singla, a chartered accountant, shares the same belief, emphasizing the cultural significance of these age-old practices.
However, the scientific community remains skeptical. Experts assert that there's no concrete evidence supporting cow dung and urine as effective preventive measures against COVID-19. Dr. Harjit Singh Bhatti from the All India Institute of Medical Science adds another layer to the story, suggesting that the government might be promoting these practices intentionally. According to him, this move keeps people entrenched in superstition, potentially diverting attention from the need for proper medicine or vaccines.
As the pandemic continues to evolve, the debate between traditional beliefs and scientific evidence remains a hot topic in India. Whether these remedies will hold their ground or fade away depends on the ongoing discussions and emerging research in the fight against COVID-19.
