A person who identifies as an Angampora teacher ( a native form of material arts) says he has developed a local medicine for COVID19-induced Pneumonia.

This took place a few days after medical authorities confirmed that the "Dhammika Peniya" another miraculous medicine produced by a local healer was not a remedy for COVID19.

However, a large number of people were seen flocking to Katuwana to obtain samples of this new medicine from the local healer.

The healer says his medicine will cure pneumonia between 7-14 days.

This happened while the government has enforced strict measures to avoid public gatherings in any form.
