TAKE HOLY HINDU COW DUNG AND URINE FOR
YOUR HEALTH!
Indian doctors
warn against using cow poop as COVID cure

As COVID-19 ravages India,
some have taken to rubbing cow feces and urine on their bodies as a way to
fight the virus.
Doctors are
warning against the practice, saying there’s no proof it boosts immunity or
helps treat COVID.
“There are
also health risks involved in smearing or consuming these products — other
diseases can spread from the animals to humans,” Dr. J.A. Jayalal,
national president of the Indian Medical Association, told Reuters.
In Hinduism,
the cow is a sacred symbol of life and earth.
Some residents
of Gujarat in the western part of the country have been visiting cow shelters
to rub the excrement on their bodies, then hug or honor the cows while the
mixture dries.
When it does,
it’s washed off with milk or buttermilk.
India has been
hit with more than 22 million cases of the coronavirus and over 246,000 deaths,
although experts say the numbers could be much higher. Parts of the country have
struggled to keep up with the demand for hospital space, oxygen and PPE
supplies.
Dr. Anthony
Fauci, President Biden’s chief medical adviser, said the country needs to build
up the equivalent of field hospitals and work with other countries to ramp up vaccine
production and distribution.
Those efforts
may only work if Indian officials look at government shutdowns as an option to
slow the spread, Fauci said during a Sunday appearance on ABC’s “This Week.”
“You need to
break the chain of transmission and one of the ways to do that is to shut
down,” he said.
