After schools were closed for a month due to coronavirus pandemic, Madagascar has reopened its schools. School children, according to New York Times, were given face masks and a small bottle of herbal extract to drink to protect from COVID-19.
As WHO still insists that there is no proven cure for CoronaVirus the president of Madagascar Andry Rajoelina, has been pushing for the herbal medicine named Covid Organics to be used by his country people.

If the medicine didn’t work the schools would still be closed. Madagascar has not reported any death due to coronavirus thanks to the herbal tea, which is being distributed free in schools and poor neighborhoods.
While US President Donald Trump, according to a CNN report, has been pushing for hydroxychloroquine and disinfectants to be used to treat Covid-19, which are potentially dangerous. The medicine from Madagascar has not been reported to be toxic.
