MORE than 700 people to date have been given free herbs consisting of herbal tea, thanks to an effort initiated by the Chinese Medicine Task Force of Malaysia (Covid-19).
Led by Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR) Chinese Medicine Department head Assoc Prof Dr Te Kian Keong, the task force has been providing the herbs to the public, as well as Covid-19 and discharged patients, since March last year. The free Chinese herbs will be given based on the requester’s health condition and tongue assessment. Those interested in getting them can register online, said Dr Te.
“More than 40 patients have sought Chinese medicine services from the task force after being discharged from the hospital, ” he said. According to Dr Te, there had been an increase in demand for the Chinese herbs recently due to the rise of Covid-19 cases.
