The government through the Ministry of Health and Child Care has said that it has no record that the alleged cure for HIV/Aids which was announced by Prophet Walter Magaya ever went for any clinical trials.

Below is a statement from the Ministry of Health and Child Care:

The Ministry of Health and Child Care noted with concern the claims made in the media on Sunday 28 October 2018 regarding the discovery of a cure for HIV and AIDS.

The Ministry would like to advise the public that there are processes and procedures that new medicines should go through before they are recognized as effective and safe for use by patients.

Medicines go through rigorous tests, including clinical trials, which involve use of the product under strict medical supervision.

This is done prior to registration, and the results are submitted to the Medicines Regulator as evidence of the effectiveness of the medicines.

If the clinical trials are performed within the country these trials are authorised by the Secretary for Health and Child Care. This is to ensure that patients receive safe,
effective and reliable medicines.
