Hossein Ravazadeh (Persian: حسين روازاده) was[1] an Iranian physician who practices traditional medicine in Iran.[2][3]

Practices

Ravazadeh has students[4] and is secretary-general of the 'Islamic Society of Supporters of Iranian Agriculture', a politically conservative institution founded in 2010 that opposes genetically modified crops.[5]

During the COVID-19 pandemic, he claimed that dropping oil extracted from citrullus colocynthis into the ears twice a day would prevent infection by the virus.[6][7]

In September 2023, according to the verdict of the Court of Appeal of Tehran Province, Ravazadeh was sentenced to permanent exclusion from the medical profession throughout the country.[8][9][10][11][12]
