Kapanlagi.com - The news about Anji's YouTube video claiming the discovery of a coronavirus drug by a professor named Hadi Pranoto has reached Tompi's ears. The jazz singer, who is also a specialist in reconstructive and aesthetic plastic surgery, apparently regrets the appearance of the video.
As part of the medical world, Tompi revealed that there are procedures that must be followed before announcing a medical discovery, especially if it is related to the coronavirus pandemic for which a vaccine has not yet been found.
"The news about @duniamanji's interview with the professor who discovered the Covid drug is causing a stir. It's not impossible, it could be true. But Anji, especially a medical discovery... MUST be presented in a scientific manner, so that it can be tested, measured, and replicated," tweeted Tompi on his personal Twitter account.

According to Tompi, scientific presentations are needed to prove whether the related findings are truly effective or just a mere coincidence. He does not deny the possibility that the discussed COVID drug discovery is indeed effective as reported.
"There are those who claim to have been cured by the concoction, as I mentioned earlier: 'MAYBE it really works' or actually 'IT'S JUST A COINCIDENCE THAT THEIR CASE WAS MILD AND THEY RECOVERED ON THEIR OWN' not because of the medicine. This is what MUST BE PROVEN with existing knowledge," he said.
2. Support Scientific Publications
In a thread posted on Twitter, Tompi requested that the professor who is said to have discovered the COVID drug publish their work. He also invited netizens to show their positive support for the professor.
"It's not enough to just have a title and announcement. Here, I urge the professor to publish it. If it's true, wow, this will definitely be world news superhero. Come on... let's support them to publish it so that negative opinions don't spread," Tompi continued.
3. Avoiding False Information
Not to forget, Tompi also reminded Anji to conduct scientific interviews correctly in the future because the information conveyed can have a significant impact on society. There are risks that must be borne when someone informs something that is not true.
"@duniamanji also needs to check the background of the person being interviewed, verify first. Then scientific interviews are certainly different from ghost event interviews... the questioner doesn't get surprised, but keeps digging because that's the 'basic' that must be correct first. Later if it's not dangerous, friend..." Tompi's message.
"It's dangerous if you blindly believe, even a claim that goat feces can be a medicine will be touted as a discovery," he concluded.
