Kasonde:Zambia Could Not Go Ahead With The Manufacturing Of SONDASHI Formula
Health MINISTER Joseph Kasonde says that Zambia at the moment could not go ahead with the clinical trials on the drug because the medicine was not packaged in capsules to regulate dosages.
Dr Kasonde said the country had the research centre and scientists to do it but had no equipment to manufacture capsules for the Sondashi Formula powder. He said this before conducting a tour of the laboratories at the Tropical Disease and Research Center (TDRC) in Ndola yesterday.
He said Government would do everything possible to secure the equipment for manufacturing the capsules and called for support from interested stakeholders. “There have been a lot of concerns from the public on the Sondashi formula. I have received a lot of questions on what the ministry is doing on the treatment that is believed to cure HIV/AIDS.
“We went to the Industrial Scientific Research Centre in South Africa to have the capsules manufactured, unfortunately, they have not succeeded. We contacted their colleagues in Ethiopia but they have not given as any answers, as for now, that’s our position,” he said.

GRZ is a big shame. A total failure. Instead of empowering Dr. Ludwig Sondashi by cancelling one road project and channelling the intended funds to buying the capsule making equipment and enabling him produce the medicines which He would later export to the rest of the world and bring in enough ForEx which would be taxed for Governments benefit continuously, they choose to talk talk and talk while Dr. Sondashi ages till He dies with the formula due to old age (God forbid). I think old people are failing to run government and bring development. Important issues are not being articulated sensibly and logically hence we keep dragging behind all the time.

In my view of Sondashi formula, It’s not that the govt has failed to procure the capsule making machine.
The issue of HIV/AIDS is beyond government. AIDS was made to eradicate a black man.
C how much fund and employment it has created, the issue is to eliminate anyone who claims can cure and step on the solution. In other words there is a hand behind AIDS issue controlling the whore thing.

Katwishi efyo twaba when it comes to one of our own coming up with some kind of medicinal intervention! Recall the woman in one of the compounds who healed the chap from southern province of his skin problem after failure by conventional medicine? I wonder what would happen if she chose to make claim that she has a cure for skin diseases! Many would not approve wanting her concoction to be tested for toxicity and other for approval by WHO yet proof is there of a beneficiary! Even WHO can not bar manufacture or use of locally produced medicines so long the country is not promoting such beyond national borders!

Just visit china. The problem is that sondashi is hiding the fomular. He wants to be the zambian president. There are politics involved. Chinese can do. Simple
