                    Counteract Response To COVID-19

                                                                                                                                             (Estd. by the 13th Dalai Lama in 1916, Re-Estd. by the 14th Dalai Lama in 1961)
                                                                                          M E N -T S E E - K H A N G ( S O WA - R I G PA )
Men-Tsee-Khang, with 59 branch clinics under it, has played an essential role
as a healthcare provider responding to this pandemic in preventing and treating
COVID-19 in the Tibetan community in exile and beyond.

Since the early stages of the pandemic, Men-Tsee-Khang has carried out several
works in preventing COVID-19. In collaboration with the CTA, MTK has provided
immune boosters for over 25,000 Tibetans in high-risk categories, bearing one-
third of the costs. The
high-risk      category
includes those above
age 65, those with
hypertension         or
diabetes, volunteers
and frontline health
workers, those in
quarantine,         and
Tibetans living abroad.
The feedback for these
immune boosters has
been       substantially
positive; beneficiaries
                            Our Doctor consulting COVID-19 patient at COVID care Centre
have reported reduced
stress and anxiety and improved appetite and sleep.

Until March 31, 2021, Men-Tsee-Khang has treated 2,137 COVID-19 patients, and
the response from the patients, Sorig clinicians, the CTA COVID-19 Task Force,
and Tibetan media outlets has been overwhelmingly positive.

Last year, MEET also designed a dietary and lifestyle guideline for the prevention
of COVID-19, earning praise from both COVID-19 patients and private Sorig
practitioners.

The Research & Development Department has been collecting case questionnaires
on COVID-19 patients who received Sowa-Rigpa treatment. Moreover, the
department is currently designing a case series to study the efficacy of Sowa-Rigpa
in preventing COVID-19.

We hope to continue our efforts in combating this disease.
