"Eyeing" Lianhua Qing plague, pre-use it to treat new crown pneumonia
Singapore's Health Sciences Board approved Chung Hua Hospital, and even Huaqing Plague Capsules were conducting clinical trials locally, working with two Western medicine clinics to assess whether this proprietary Chinese medicine has complementary effects in the cure of coronary disease.
The Western medicine clinics that participate in the clinical trial of Lianhua Qingpeng capsules require patients with coronary disease to take Western medicine for two hours before they can eat Lianhua Qingxiao capsules three times a day for seven consecutive days.
A volunteer COVID-19 patient said: "Every day he would call me at 1 o'clock in the afternoon and ask me how I was doing, and to see my tongue, in the morning and in the evening, I needed a rapid antigen test, and then I measured my tongue temperature, and my blood oxygen index." ”
It is reported that Singaporean experts said that this Lianhua Qing plague capsule is all herbal, but we will ensure that the patient eats no side effects, such as vomiting, vomiting, and perhaps liver problems such as jaundice, if there are any side effects, we will ask the patient to come back to see the doctor and check.

According to the Health Science Bureau, the randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled study was initiated by Chung Hwa Hospital to assess whether Lianhua Qing plague capsules could provide adjuvant treatment for adults recovering at home who contracted the disease after completing vaccination and developed mild symptoms on the basis of existing Western medicine treatment.
The second is to assess whether Lianhua Qingpeng capsules can make the results of rapid antigen detection from yang to yin faster.
Now Singapore is moving towards the coexistence and treatment of coronary disease in the program, to suit the local residents, according to the constitution of most of the people in Singapore, as well as living habits, after comparison, the right medicine will be more obvious and better.
Chung Hwa Hospital is currently recruiting volunteers aged between 21 and 79 to participate in the pilot program, with the goal of 300 people.

In China, Lianhua Qingpeng capsules have been repeatedly recommended by the National Health Commission and written into the diagnosis and treatment plan of new crown pneumonia. The "Diagnosis and Treatment Plan for Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia (Trial Ninth Edition)" released on March 15 this year clearly states that mild and ordinary patients who are in the medical observation period or clinical treatment period (confirmed cases) are recommended to take Lianhua Qingpeng capsules (granules) as a therapeutic drug.
However, the previous announcement issued by the Health Science Bureau, an authoritative institution in Singapore, said that it only approved Lianhua Qingpeng as a proprietary Chinese medicine to relieve the symptoms of cold and flu for local sale, and did not approve it as a drug to treat or alleviate the new crown.
According to the regulations, Singapore prohibits sellers from claiming that Lotus Qing plague can cure COVID-19. Sellers who post false advertisements/mislead the public will be arrested, offenders may be prosecuted, and if convicted, jailed for up to two years, fined up to S$5,000, or both.

Backpackers Hostel is allowed to accept foreign travelers
After Singapore reopened its borders, backpacker hostels were allowed to accept foreign travelers, although no more than ten people could live in hostel rooms. It is reported that the first batch of backpackers have come to Singapore for tourism.
After two years of cold winter, many backpacking hostels have finally seen the figure of foreign backpackers.
It is reported that many hostels mainly rent beds to foreign employees during the epidemic, and after the reopening of the Singapore-Malaysia land checkpoint, more than half of the Malaysian tenants have returned to Johor Bahru, while the number of foreign backpackers is less than 10% of the pre-epidemic situation, which makes the industry feel anxious.
It is expected that it will take half a year to a year for business to gradually recover. The Singapore Backpackers Alliance noted that there are about 100 backpacker hostels in Singapore, with about 10% closing in the past two years.
