ravip Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 US President Donald Trump has been lambasted by the medical community after suggesting research into whether coronavirus might be treated by injecting disinfectant into the body. He also appeared to propose irradiating patients' bodies with UV light, an idea dismissed by a doctor at the briefing. Another of his officials had moments earlier said sunlight and disinfectant were known to kill the infection. Mr Trump's own public health agencies warn against bleach as a medicine.

Popular Post Muzzique Posted April 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) Why did no one else think if this first? Just poison everyone with CV19 symptoms by injecting disinfectant directly into their bloodstream and nobody dies of Coronavirus. The 'death by disinfectant' figures for 2020 will go up by a few million this year but who will be checking that? Pure genius!!

I still cant believe it. Trump was voted in as The president of the United States (POTUS) by the Americans, themselves! Not by the Thais or any such.

Popular Post GroveHillWanderer Posted April 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) 5 hours ago, ravip said: Another of his officials had moments earlier said sunlight and disinfectant were known to kill the infection. Not quite. He gave a presentation on how long the virus could survive on surfaces or in the air when exposed to heat, UV light, disinfectant and isopropyl alcohol - he didn't say they would kill an infection. There's a bit of a difference. Trump, having just heard someone talk at length quite clearly and distinctly about things that would inactivate the virus outside the human body, then launched into a series of musings about using those things inside the human body. There was no possible way, for anyone who can listen to, understand and process information correctly, to link a presentation about the effects of UV light, disinfectant etc on the virus in the open, to using those things inside the human body. Yet Trump somehow made that totally illogical and incorrect leap. One might almost be forgiven for concluding that Trump is actually incapable of correctly interpreting almost any information that is presented to him.

Rancid Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Was he referring to hydrogen peroxide? If so taking small doses of food grade internally has been around for a long time. Tried it myself and I'm not dead. Whether would help with this have no idea. Read the ingredients for vaccines, H2O2 starts to look good. Externally best thing for gravel rashes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the disinfectants referred to by the DHS official whose remarks Trump was reacting to, were household bleach and isopropyl alcohol. Also, would you think of injecting hydrogen peroxide? I somehow doubt it. Anyway, as I understand it, while you can gargle with hydrogen peroxide or use it as a mouthwash, you should never ingest it. According to Healthline: Quote The key to safely gargling hydrogen peroxide is to make sure you never swallow it. This is true whether you’re using 3% hydrogen peroxide or 35% “food grade” hydrogen peroxide.

Popular Post Lacessit Posted April 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 24, 2020 Anything to distract attention from the facts under his watch, the US has four times the infections of any other country, and more than twice the number of deaths.
