Homeopathy medicine not a substitute for oxygen when treating Covid-19 patients, experts say

Homeopathy medicine not a substitute for oxygen when treating Covid-19 patients, experts say

Dr. Bhaskar Bhatt, former president of Homeopathy Medical Association of India, told AFP homeopathy medicines were not a substitute for oxygen treatment for Covid-19 patients.

"Homeopathy medicines given according to the patient's symptoms usually help the patient recover, but none of the medicines can replace oxygen,” he said. “The capacity of lungs can be increased and improved, but if there is a lack of oxygen, it has to be supplied”.

It's incredibly frustrating to see a so-called "fact check" site attempt to spread the impression that homeopathy medicines are useful for any purpose other than scamming people. Homeopathy is pure snake oil.
