Symptomatic COVID-19 positive and likely patients treated by homeopathic physicians - an Italian descriptive study
Ciro D'Arpa
Abstract
In early 2020 the COVID-19 pandemic reached very high levels in Italy: the Coronavirus COVID-19<br> global cases2 reported 147,577 cases as of April 11, 2020, putting Italy in third place for spread in<br> the world. On the initiative of SIMO - Italian Society of Homeopathic Medicine3, a working group of<br> homeopathic physicians and independent researchers began in January 2020 to collect<br> documentation to prepare for the prevention and treatment of patients with COVID-19, which was<br> immediately considered a very serious threat to public health. To protect the absolute<br> independence of the research, the working group does not receive any form of funding from any<br> homeopathic pharmaceutical company or other body.
