Crazy ideas to cure coronavirus
Change language:
The vaccine for the new coronavirus is yet to be found, manufactured, and distributed, but many people who have recovered from the infection claim crazy things to have cured them.
Even before President Donald Trump came up with the brilliant idea to inject people with disinfectant to cure coronavirus, others suggested drinking and/or bathing in Clorox or other household cleaning products, or washing hands with Vodka.
Bleach baths
In a post on her blog, Cristina Cuomo – the wife of American journalist Chris Cuomo and sister-in-law of Andrew Cuomo, the Governor of New York – claimed that bathing in bleach is a recommended remedy for infections. She is now all better, but it is doubtful that it was due to her questionable bath. Even the Clorox site warns people against consuming or using their products for anything other than what they are intended for.
Disinfectant injections
In a press conference, President Trump suggested injecting disinfectants. But after major backlash for his reckless and baseless proposal, as well as companies warning people on their social media sites not to do such a thing, the President claimed he was only being sarcastic, despite not sounding like it.
Trump also claimed that a combination of Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin could be a game-changer in medicine. Medical professionals, however, warned doctors not to prescribe it before all clinical trials are completed and the results are in.
HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE & AZITHROMYCIN, taken together, have a real chance to be one of the biggest game changers in the history of medicine. The FDA has moved mountains – Thank You! Hopefully they will BOTH (H works better with A, International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents)…..

The fact that an intellectual MORON like Racoon-head Donald (a.k.a. the 45th President of the United States) could honestly suggest that injection of disinfectants would ‘cure’ Wuhan ‘flu (HIS NAME FOR THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC) is scary enough.
Let us all hope – indeed fervently pray to whatever invisible Being we believe appropriate – that when Donald has another of his ‘brain waves’, his fingers are nowhere near the briefcase containing launch codes / firing buttons for the multitude of weapons which the U.S. has in its nuclear arsenal.
“Sorry, folks, I was only kidding.”
