Patanjali had introduced Ayurveda-based Coronil on June 23 last year, when the pandemic was at its peak
Yoga guru Ramdev s Coronail kit , which sparked massive debate over its efficacy to prevent coronavirus last year, has once again run into controversy. Although this time the AYUSH ministry has approved Patanjali Ayurved s Coronil for the treatment of coronavirus, the World Health Organisation has sidelined itself.
Yoga teacher Ramdev's claims on Patanjali's Coronil as the "first evidence-based medicine for COVID-19", made in the presence of Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan, has drawn blistering criticism from the Indian Medical Association (IMA). The medical body has questioned how the Health Minister could promote a "falsely fabricated, unscientific product" before the country.
