To use a drug or herbal in treating a certain illness it has to undergo various stages of test and certification before approval.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have not heard of any herbal that has been certified for HIV treatment,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>On the fight against the menace, Dahiru said the state had achieved a lot in reducing disease burden.<\/p>\n<p>He said the state achieved 95 per cent of
