Issue 1. This drug is approved for psoriasis in India.
It is STILL NOT approved in USA for the same.
Ironically she happily quotes USFDA protocols for restricted emergency approval when her drug has not been approved for the original use there 🤷♂️
Shouldn't that make you wonder

Issue 2. They claim this drug showed "encouraging results in covid19 patients"
The "test" involved 30 patients. The drug helped with some symptoms but no change in mortality (death due to disease) was seen in the calculations
Also too small sample

Issue 3
By her own admission KMS...
It is a pandemic and desperate doctors are trying anything and everything to save patients lives. It might work or not but at least we tried being the logic.
Is that logic how a pharma company should operate?

Who ever questions her her replies skirt the question and instead attack the person. Regardless of whether the person is a doctor or medical journalist or whatever

Bottom line
They are promoting this drug. They are encouraging everyone to buy (32,000 rupees for full course) and use it in the middle of the pandemic. YOU will PAY THEM to be their TEST SUBJECTS.
SHOULDN'T THAT MAKE YOU WONDER?
It definitely makes me... 🤷♂️
