TCM tabled as possible H1N1 cure

Children suffering A(H1N1) influenza could benefit from taking Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Beijing traditional Chinese medicine bureau said.

Tu Zhitao, vice-director of the bureau, claimed that children sickened with the flu should be cured within three days.

"Some children will be cured with only one dose (of No 2 Cold Medicine), while others might need two," Tu said.
