Borigi Anandayya is the name of the Ayurveda practitioner that has spread in the entire state in a day. His new medicine for Covid-19 is making the patients on hospital beds get up and make a queue at his place in Krishnapatnam, Nellore District.
Now the people are starting to pour their opinions on this on social media.Here are a few.
"The government will stop this.This won't happen. I am sure someone will drop a PIL in the Court and bring a stay order. That someone will be backed by Corporate Hospitals or Pharma giants".
"Government or the Medical Association need not interfere in this. They should neither endorse nor object. Let the people take this on their own faith like that of 'fish medicine' by Bathina brothers for Asthma. There are many instances where people got well with this Anandayya's Covid medicine".
"Some are saying that the clinical trials are not done for this and it needs proper approval. What kind of trials are done before releasing the vaccines into the market? What kind of tests the DRDO drug underwent to endorse it? A Corporate Company is required to get all sorts of approvals. Everything is business. The system cannot let such massive things go for free. It needs GST and the commissions to the Treasury".
"Borigi Anandayya may end up as Ramar Pillai who was shot to fame almost 3 decades ago claiming that he could make petrol from leaves. After sometime he vanished from the news. While some people said that his proposal was bogus, others said that the government didn't give approval as it has trade links with the petrol from the Gulf. Whatever it is, these kinds of things never move in India".
"Be it a real medicine or a placebo. Let people take it. What kind of assurance the doctors can give to the patients with regard to Covid-19 treatment? They treat with high steroids and finally blame the patient's body constitution if he catches black fungus. This Anandayya's product may be far better than that of mainstream Allopathic Medicine in this pandemic situation".
"Amidst the lack of oxygen cylinders, ventilator beds and fake Remdisivir injections, this Ayurvedic medicine by Anadayya is far better to try. No treatment is completely safe and hundred percent guaranteed. Just common sense".
"I say in one line. Anandayya deserves the Nobel Prize for Medicine if this is true. I wish this Nellore medicine should go international. Let Indian medicine be an answer for Chinese virus"
