The Turkmen ruler Gurbanguli Berdimuchamedow claims to have discovered another miracle cure for the coronavirus: licorice. "Scientists from every country are looking for effective remedies, and one of them could be licorice root,"
said the authoritarian head of state at a meeting with his cabinet and commissioned the Academy of Sciences with studies on the medicinal properties of the plant. The former dentist had already advised in March to inhale rue smoke in the fight against Corona.
