A private organisation claims cure for AIDS
|
TAMBARAM
: An advertisement board at the entrance of the Tambaram Taluk Government Hospital, more popularly known as Chromepet GH, has annoyed patients, visitors and residents nearby.
The advertisement board, put up by a private organisation, claims that it can provide cure for AIDS, cancer, kidney failure and placenta-related problems. It says that the ailments which could not be cured by western medical practices can be cured with the help of `navapaashaanam' and the Kerala-style oil-based physiotherapy.
Residents said they were aghast after noticing the board and took strong exception to the location as it would divert the attention of hundreds of poor people flocking the hospital for treatment.
V. Santhanam, president of the Chromepet New Colony Residents Welfare Society, said practitioners of such practices are also free to publicise their skills and advertise their profession. But the location of this advertisement was not in good taste, he said.
When contacted, representatives of the organisation — Uni Care Hospital — said they had not committed anything unethical or illegal by installing the advertisement board.
