A Nigerian professor, Maduike Ezeibe has said that he has discovered a cure for Lassa fever and coronavirus.

Ezeibe, a Professor of Virology at Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike (MOUAU), stated that the effective treatment procedure he developed for HIV will help in the cure of coronavirus.

He gave the chemical equation for his therapy as (AI4(SiO4)3+3Mg2SiO4-2AI2Mg3(SiO4)3) and urged countries battling coronavirus to adopt it.

“Electrostatic attraction would make electrically charged medicines mop pathogens which have opposite charges, is a known scientific fact and that viruses and abnormal (infected /tumor) cells are electrically charged is now known.

”Covid-19 virus and Lassa fever virus (DNA viruses) are negatively charged . Small sizes of viruses enable them infect cells, inaccessible to big molecules. So, existing antiviral medicines need immunity to complement their effects but some viruses cause immune deficiency.

"As a silicate, AMS also normalises immunity and as a stabilizing agent it enhances efficacy of antimicrobials to achieve effective treatment secondary infections.

“Effective treatment of secondary infections would cure any viral /abnormal cell diseases including Covid -19 and Lassa fever “
