Krazy Kures for KOVID-19

It had to happen, I suppose, but still... someone's only been and gone and made homeopathic chloroquine!

I'm slightly surprised the screenshot isn't in French. As there seems to be a big market there - just from noticing the number of homeopathic adverts and businesses when I've been there.
Have you considered stupidity as an explanation

Both Germany (where it's called homöopathie, not the easiest word to pronounce) and France love their lactose pills. France is the home of Boiron. But they have recently made progress in getting it off the list of medicines that are covered by the public healthcare system. Pharmacies still sell homeo because it has a high margin for them, like all the beauty creams and other assorted crap. They make very little on their ostensible core business of providing medicines.
