Patanjali launches 'Coronil' medicine to cure Covid-19 disease

Guwahati: At a time when the international community is scrambling to find a cure for the Covid-19 virus, Patanjali today launched an ayurvedic medicine for treating COVID-19 at the Patanjali Yogpeeth in Haridwar.

Baba Ramdev, the face of the multi-crore Indian giant, said that the medicine will be tested even on people who are on ventilators.

Terming the ayurvedic medicine as "not an immunity booster but a cure", Ramdev said that an app will soon be launched for the delivery of the Corona kit. 

"0% death rate and a 100% recovery rate has been observed after the usage of the product. While 69% of the people recovered within 6 days, 100% of the people recovered within a week, Baba Ramdev claimed, adding that "all questions" relating to this new product will be answered soon.

Patanjali has claimed that the controlled clinical trials were jointly conducted by Patanjali Research Institute, Haridwar, and the National Institute of Medical Sciences in Jaipur.

Balkrishna, the Chairman of the company, said that they had appointed a team of scientists after the COVID-19 outbreak to find a cure for the contagious illness. "Firstly, the simulation was done and compounds were identified which can fight the virus and stop its spread in the body. Then, we conducted a clinical case study on hundreds of positive patients and we have got 100 percent favorable results," he informed.

He went on to add that after consuming the Patanjali medicine, the COVID patients recovered in 5-14 days and then tested negative. "So, we can say the cure for COVID is possible through Ayurveda. We are performing controlled clinical trials only. In the next 4-5 days, evidence and data will be released by us," he said.

Earlier this month, Balkrishna had claimed that an Ayurvedic medicine developed by the company has been able to cure COVID-19 patients within 5-14 days.
