A review of a drug called carrimycin that is said to cure corona covid-19, in Dahlan Iskan's blog on Tuesday (07/04/2020), caught attention. This is because there is one drug used by China to handle corona covid-19 by using their own discovery.

According to the information in the blog review by the Minister of State-Owned Enterprises, Dahlan Iskan, the drug is called carrimycin. Carrimycin was actually discovered in June 2019. Initially, carrimycin was used to treat bacteria, infections, and fight against cancer.

"Carrimycin was discovered in June last year. At that time, there was no Covid-19. Carrimycin was discovered for the treatment of bacteria and infections. Also for fighting against cancer," wrote Dahlan Iskan as mentioned in the blog disway.id.

Dahlan Iskan also mentioned that carrimycin is now being produced in Shanghai. Carrimycin is different from hydroxychloroquine, because carrimycin is a pill for sick people. Meanwhile, hydroxychloroquine is now undergoing clinical trials on healthy people in Wuhan, China.

"What Prof Chen Wei discovered is a vaccine. An injectable drug. For healthy people. So that those who are still healthy won't get Covid-19. Meanwhile, Carrimycin is a pill for the sick. To get cured," he continued.
