Coronavirus prevention: Prices of ginger, garlic soar in Kaduna as misinformation spread

The search for prevention against coronavirus and the fear of contracting it has resulted in good business for herb sellers in Kaduna, as the prices of spices have gone up.

Ginger and garlic sellers are making huge sales, following rumours that they protect users against the epidemic.

Vanguard learned that an online letter, said to have come from China and had gone viral, indicated that a mixture of ginger, garlic and some herbs was excellent prevention and cure of COVID-19 when taken as a tea.

However, the World Health Organisation, WHO, has debunked the rumour of spices preventing coronavirus infection, but noted the health benefits of such spices.



A message on its site said: “Garlic is a healthy food that may have some antimicrobial properties. However, there is no evidence from the current outbreak that eating garlic has protected people from the new coronavirus,” followed by the graphics below:

Meanwhile, Malam Hassan Rufai told Vanguard that his body had changed for good after taking the said spices’ tea-mixture, even as he enjoyed his nocturnal matrimonial duties more than before.

He said: “Ginger and garlic will soon be scarce in Kano market, especially the fresh ones. The traders are hiking the price because people are becoming aware of its importance in combating severe cold and body pain.”

On the veracity of coronavirus prevention, Rufai, a youth leader in Hayin Banki community, said all he knows is that natural lemon was also good in fighting severe cold, as he was talking from experience.

  1. In this fashion my acquaintance Wesley Virgin's biography launches in this SHOCKING and controversial video.

    You see, Wesley was in the military-and shortly after leaving-he found hidden, "SELF MIND CONTROL" tactics that the CIA and others used to get whatever they want.

    As it turns out, these are the exact same tactics lots of celebrities (especially those who "come out of nowhere") and the greatest business people used to become wealthy and successful.

    You've heard that you use only 10% of your brain.

    That's because most of your brainpower is UNCONSCIOUS.

    Perhaps this conversation has even occurred INSIDE OF YOUR own head... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's head 7 years back, while driving a non-registered, beat-up garbage bucket of a car with a suspended license and $3 in his bank account.

    "I'm very fed up with going through life payroll to payroll! When will I get my big break?"

    You've taken part in those types of thoughts, am I right?

    Your very own success story is going to start. All you have to do is in YOURSELF.
