The head of the supervisory authority replied that the police were checking the use of aconite in treatment.
«The check is carried out by the police. According to our data, 400 people themselves voluntarily drank the tincture of this root. None of them suffered. However, we will look at the consequences of using this plant,» Kurmankul Zulushev said.
The President of Kyrgyzstan Sadyr Japarov proposed to treat COVID-19 using homemade medicines. The Health Minister Alymkadyr Beishenaliev admitted that patients had already been treated with aconite during the second wave, but they did not tell about it.
