Chinese medical portal censored after doubting herbal 'COVID-19 remedy'
A popular Chinese medical information site has been censored by authorities for "violation of relevant laws and regulations", months after its criticism of a government-backed herbal COVID-19 treatment sent shares in a pharmaceutical giant tumbling.

DXY, which counts tech giant Tencent among its investors and runs a host of health-related services, previously questioned the value of Lianhua Qingwen, a herbal remedy marketed for fever and sore throats, as a COVID-19 treatment.
China approved the concoction - made up of ingredients like honeysuckle and apricot seeds - as a COVID-19 treatment in 2020, and it was distributed to Shanghai residents during the city's outbreak this year.
DXY's article, which has now been deleted from its website, was part of a wave of reports that caused shares in Lianhua Qingwen's producer - one of China's largest traditional medicine companies - to plunge.
The website has now been banned from posting on at least five of its Weibo social media accounts, with a notice at the top of its official page saying that due to "violation of relevant laws and regulations, this user is currently prohibited from posting".
DXY's official WeChat accounts, which typically publish multiple articles a day on medical topics, have not been updated since Monday (Aug 8).
The Weibo notice did not specify which regulations had been violated by DXY, which did not immediately respond to AFP's request for comment.
