their children when they died.
I hadn't heard about socialist president dictator/snakeoil salesman Maduro's promotion of a miracle cure. How..."21st century" to combine a scientific-sounding name and pedigree with the religious-miracle sales pitch:
Maduro said Carvativir is an oral solution derived from the herb thyme, used in traditional herbal medicine. It has no known effect on coronavirus.
He added the alleged treatment had been under testing for nine months among Venezuelans ill with the coronavirus. He described the liquid as "miracle drops of Jose Gregorio Hernandez," a 19th century Venezuelan doctor who was beatified by the Roman Catholic Church last year.
"It has gone through a period of nine months of study, experimentation, clinical application. On the sick, on the very sick, on people who have been intubated, and we recovered them," he said, during a televised broadcast.
Maduro also kept secret the name of the "brilliant Venezuelan mind" behind the development of the drug, saying he needed to protect them.

Now, THAT I believe, as far as it goes.
