The weather was stiflingly hot, and it wasn't until late afternoon that a cool breeze appeared. Mrs. Mai went to the edge of the village to enjoy the breeze and chat with her neighbors. Suddenly, her daughter, Lam, rushed out with a package in her hand, calling out to her mother excitedly, her face beaming with joy.
The neighbors teased: "Did your girlfriend bring a precious gift for your mother? You look so happy!"
Ms. Lam replied: "It's more precious than gold, ladies and gentlemen. My mother has suffered from arthritis for many years. Every time the weather changes, she suffers terribly from the pain. While browsing Facebook, I happened to see a traditional medicine doctor recommending a remedy that could completely cure this disease. I carefully read the comments below the post; many people had used the medicine and confirmed that it completely cured the disease, so I ordered some for my mother to try."
Listening in on the conversation, Ms. Quy continued: "My child has atopic dermatitis. We've been to many doctors and tried many different medications, but it hasn't gotten better. I just saw an advertisement on Facebook for a traditional medicine practitioner who introduced a four-generation family remedy specializing in treating skin diseases and guaranteed a complete cure. The video showed many patients who had been treated and cured, so I think I'll have to order some medicine for my child to try."
Hearing this, Ms. Loan frowned: "Everyone knows that when you're sick, you'll try anything, but why are you all so careless? Medicine directly affects the health and lives of users. Each person has a different illness and physical condition; you must see a doctor to get prescribed medication. I've read in the newspapers and watched on TV that many people have believed the advertisements of 'quacks' and arbitrarily used traditional herbal remedies to cure all diseases. The consequence is that not only does their condition not improve, but it gets worse. By the time they are taken to the hospital, the patients are in critical condition. That's not even mentioning the cases where people bought fake medicine because they trusted advertisements on social media. The Ho Chi Minh City police recently dismantled a ring producing fake traditional medicine mixed with Paracetamol. The Hung Yen provincial police also recently cracked down on a case, arresting individuals involved in the production and sale of counterfeit medicines for treating and preventing diseases online." This individual hired acquaintances to impersonate patients, staged a video of medical examinations and treatments at a clinic, and then falsely claimed to be a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner with a four-generation family recipe, promising a complete cure.
After listening to Ms. Loan's analysis, everyone found it reasonable and reminded each other: To avoid wasting money and suffering health consequences, everyone must be selective about information on social media, especially information related to health. When experiencing unusual health symptoms, everyone should go to a medical facility for examination and treatment advice. When buying medicine, people must choose products with clear origins and sources; do not buy medicines or dietary supplements through websites or social media accounts with unclear origins, even if they show actual images. People should only buy medicine from reputable medical facilities and pharmacies that have been granted certificates of eligibility to conduct pharmaceutical business...
