In the process of this ongoing corona episode, one of the most hilarious suggestions was given by the MLA of Uttar Pradesh, Surendra Narayan Singh from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). He urges everyone to consume cow urine in an empty stomach to stay safe from the coronavirus. He asks everyone to strain the cow urine with a cotton cloth or strainer for 3 to 4 times, mix it with water and then consume it for 1 week in continuation. After 1 week, anyone affected with the virus, who consumes this drink on a daily basis would fully recover from the virus. This claim is not only fake but nonsensical at the same time made in order to astray the Indian population.
Again, a facebook user has uploaded a picture of Yoga guru ‘Baba Ramdev” from a hospital surrounded by a group of doctors saying that he fell sick for consuming extreme amounts of cow urine which is a rumor against him. The real fact is, the picture which was uploaded was of 2011 when Baba Ramdev was admitted into Dehradun Hospital for extreme weakness as he kept on fasting against black money. Moreover, the news against him saying that he has advised people to consume cow urine on a daily basis as a precautionary measure against coronavirus is completely fake. Thus, people are advised not to follow any news being circulated on the web social media without an adequate fact check.
