Dokpesi reveals how he was treated of coronavirus with malaria drugs (Video)
Raymond Dokpesi has demanded to know the different between malaria and COVID-19, while explaining how he was treated with malaria drugs.
Dokpesi, who is the owner of DAAR Communications has demanded explanations from medical experts on what kind of disease coronavirus is.
There have been debates across the world over the similarities of the infection to malaria.
This has led to warnings against the use of a malaria drug Chloroquine by health officials and organisations.
The National Agency for Food, Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) on Thursday warned again about Chloroquine.
NAFDAC Director General, Prof. Mojisola Adeyeye, said: “Nobody should buy chloroquine and use. If you have COVID-19, go to a doctor. We have warned Nigerians, do not take chloroquine”.
But after he was discharged, the media mogul, said he was confused.
He said: “I still have doubts in my mind and I need to be educated. What’s the difference between COVID-19 and malaria? Every drug we were given were malaria medications.
“A number of persons who tested positive were checked in reputable labs, hospitals in Abuja and were found to have malaria parasites in their blood streams. When did malaria become synonymous with COVID-19?”
According to DAILY POST reports, so far the only authorized treatment for the pandemic is Remdesivir.
However, Remdesivir is limited in supply, a situation that has caused countries to demand for alternative antidotes.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) has said that Madagascar must scientifically test its solution for coronavirus.
Madagascar had began shipment of the herbal remedy named, “COVID Organics” to African nations including Nigeria.
Last week, a team of medical experts announced the discovery of a mixture they said proved effective.
The mixture contain, the combination of two antiviral drugs and one immune system booster.
