The Ghana Association of Medical Herbalists (GAMH) has said that it is still working behind the scenes to produce a herbal medicine that will help in the fight against COVID-19.
General Secretary of the Association, Dr Prince Osei, explained that since the pandemic broke out, the Association has been carefully monitoring the situation to bring out the best herbal medicine that will manage the disease. However, the support has not been optimal.
Speaking to Samuel Eshun on the Happy Morning Show, he expressed: "now that we have these vaccines available, we believe clinical trials must continue.
Our initial plan was to partner with the Health Ministry so that we administer approved herbal drugs to those held at the isolation centres if they wish to. Then we can administer and monitor to see how the response of the person is. That was what we were proposing, unfortunately, we pushed that agenda and yet we didn't get any favourable response".
