suggested remedy for viral pandemic. in spite of boastfull claims about the progress of medical science and in spite of the rountinely award of nobel prize in chemistry and medicine, humans are pretty much defenceless against virus.viruses when they go global,can threaten the very human race.virulent influenza pandemic of 1920 and AIDS virus as of now are the frightening examples of that.ebola virus, first noticed in 1976 is far more lethal and contagious. If unchecked may wipe out significant portion of humanity.to this date no effective vaccine and medicine have devised against it. I understand that a good number of our armed forces personnels are posted in Africa as peace keepers.bangladesh therefore has some possibility of being exposed to deadly ebola virus Here in the following I am suggesting a herbal preparation both as a deterrent and medicine agaist virus in general and dengu and ebola in particular.every year about 520 million people all over the world including bangladesh are infected by dengu virus.if not properly managed,it can be fatal.dengu and ebola have some similarities in their pathologies.both are hemorrhagic at late stage. Numerous studies have shown that papya leaf juice can restore plate late count and cure dengu fever.recent lab tests have shown that quercerine,a flavonoid in papaya juice effetively checks dengu viral assembly by docking on to the protease of the virus.papaya leaf juice contains fairly good amount of saponin , a glycoside,which prevents not only cell lysis but aslo helps in the generation of red blood cells. I want to consider next,the indian goose berry known in bengali as amlaki.this fruit contains the highest amount of vitamin C (580 mg/100 gm).according to two times nobel prize winner linus pauling, vitamin c is the universal cure for all dis ceases- particularly virus related ones.besides this,amlaki contains anti viral property. And the last but not the least that I want to consider is our well known ginger.gi.since ancient times, man knows about the wonderfull curative properties of ginger .studies have shown that ginger helps the cell generation and boosts up the immune system. having considered above three plant products I propose a dosage against virus. .50gm fresh and mature papaya leaves .two amlakis .half inch fresh ginger,washed but not peeled. .take all the ingredients together and finely grind on flat stone with pestle(pata-puta). .strain the paste on triply folded cloth. .you will have about 20ml of juice .add 5ml of honey(in the of diabetic patients add one tablet of aspertame) .divide into two portions .incase of dengu or similar virus take one portion 6hourly. .do not store the prepartion longer than 24hours(4oc). The concoction should be quite palatable and it has no ill effect. It should enhance your appetite. As a deterrent against virus,you may take one portion ie10ml of the juice every day. I have suggested a herbal mixture based on what I know.hakimi people may think of making medicines employing methods like freeze drying or critical carbondioxide solvent extraction. A note of caution though.many phytochemicals are quite poisonous.therefore in any herbal preparation one must be sure that the plants that are intended to be used are not toxic.in the present suggestion the components, including the papaya leaves,are deemed to be safe.
