Airports employ strategic design and timing, known as the 'golden hour,' to encourage passengers to spend money while waiting for their flights. This period, between passing security and boarding, makes travelers a captive audience susceptible to retail opportunities. Techniques include delayed gate announcements, strategic shop layouts, and inflated prices for food and drink. Expert Holly Buckner and sources like The Sydney Morning Herald and InterVistas highlight how these methods increase sales, while travel experts suggest airport lounges as a way to save money.

To Fight COVID-19, Asia Increasingly Turns to Traditional Medicine
01 Dec 2021

thediplomat.com

English
| Vaccines
The unequal access to COVID-19 vaccines has led many Asians to turn to traditional medicine for protection and relief. In Thailand, herbs like Fa Talai Jone and Krachai Chao have gained popularity for their potential anti-viral properties. The Thai government has approved Fa Talai Jone for treating mild COVID-19 cases, and research is ongoing for other herbs. Traditional medicine is integrated with modern healthcare in several Asian countries, including Vietnam, where a new herbal treatment, Vipdervir, is undergoing clinical trials. Despite improved vaccine availability, traditional medicine remains relevant, especially with the rise of the Omicron variant. The WHO supports the use of evidence-based traditional medicine as part of a holistic healthcare approach.
