Genus Epidemicus for Chikugunya

 

    Dear Readers,

    Were proud and happy for having received many reports from various organizations stating that Homoeopathic Medicines are effective in prevention of Chikungunya… the latest epidemic outburst fever. Many organizations reported that Eupatorium Perfoliatum could be declared as "Genus Epidemicus" and the remedies "Rhus Tox" and "Bryonia" had been successfully benefits many post pyrexia effects.

      
    Many non-government organizations had taken much care in arranging Free Medical camps in southern states. A large number of patients benefitted with the service. Homoeopathy had proved its efficacy from Dr Hahnemann's time. Recently during the outburst on Japanese Encephalitis, Dengue fever also Homoeopathy had shown its efficacy.

    This is the right time to prove the efficacy of Homoeopathy with vital statistics, for which voluntary Health organizations , Educational Institutions and Research Centers should dedicate their service and achieve the goal. We have to appeal to the state and Union Government to place our system in the main stream in prevention and treatment of these epidemic outbursts.

    Every Homoeopath has got an opportunity to prove the efficacy of Homoeopathy to the world and to prove Homoeopathy is not a placebo! We are planning to bring an exclusive issue on Chikungunya on December issue and we appeal to all to contribute, to explore the scientific validity with statistics

With regards
