The Kingdom of eSwatini is a hub of traditional medicine. People come from far and wide to consult sangomas. Now the Witchdoctors Association of eSwatini wants a shot against COVID-19. The chairman and members of the association along with representatives from the University of eSwatini and other educational institutions met to discuss the issue. Witchdoctors said they had banished COVID-19 related symptoms before and should have no trouble doing it now. The chairman even said its possibke their patients had COVID but simply hadn't tested. In their discussion, sangomas said they would like to approach the WHO to present their indigebous cures. Meeting with the patients is absolutely critical, sangomas said, because the ancestors must be consulted before a diagnosis. This is because each patient might need a different mixture of medicines. Infections continue to rise in the kingdom where a 1 year-old tested positive for the virus recently. The situation in the nation has prompted various interest groups to urge government towards the probing of traditional medicine. Do you think witchdoctors should be given a chance? Should the WHO lend them an ear? What can government do to help them carry out their work? We can't throw the bones and know what you're thinking, enchant us with your comments below and FOLLOW FOR EVERYTHING ESWATINI AND OCCULT!
