TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Health Ministry on Thursday has sent several batches of traditional herbal drinks for healthcare workers in the front line of the coronavirus (COVID-19) battle. The ministry claims the ingredients of the herbal drinks are believed to improve a person’s immune system.

“Healthcare workers are in dear need of [supplements] to improve their immune. We distributed some of it to them,” said the ministry’s director of traditional health service Ina Rosalina Dadan in a written release on Thursday, April 23.
