He didn't mean to actually inject the disinfectant. What he meant was remove the lungs, turn them inside-out, spray them with disinfectant and then use a UV light to dry them. Then turn the lungs right-side-out and put them back in. But you won't hear the media explain it this way, though. It doesn't fit their narrative.
This is the kind of pretzel logic I am seeing today.

Well since you put it that way, I don't see any problem.

(15,024 posts)and if doctors did that, no patient under this treatment would ever die of Covid-19. Why, during the autopsy the next day, there'd be nary a sign of any infection in the lungs.

(21,708 posts)A pro tip, though. From a guy who grew up where "huffing" paint was cool.
There is no need to inject.
Just pour some bleach in a bucket, put a damp towel over your head, and then get in there and breath. Deep.
An alternate method is to pour some bleach on a cloth and hold the cloth over your nose and mouth and breath. Deep.

(15,373 posts)There's a link to a post about a conservative radio show host agreeing with a caller that vaping bleach might cure COV-19.
I laughed, but ultimately, there's no point trying to make jokes about Trump and what his followers will do. Humor and satire are dead under Trump.

When are the non-cultlike Trump supporters gonna get tired of him rendering them clowns in this way. Fucking bozos.

(28,918 posts)For those of you sharing the stupidity of the news media. A little education goes a long way.
Trump asked about light and disinfectant injected into the body. There are two existing therapies. UV therapy as well as ozone therapy. The one that has the left all riled up is ozone therapy. This has been used for cancer patients. O3 gas is infused into the body as a DISINFECTANT to improve the intake of oxygen while ramping up the immune system, thus more efficiently killing bacteria and viruses. You can google it if you want. Trump asked the expert off to the side if testing was being done relative to applying this to the coronavirus. But of course NBC CBS CNN and company would take his words out of context to make it sound like he looked at the camera and said hey lets all drink bleach. Disinfectant inside the body is indeed dangerous and should only be done by a doctor.
A footnote: if you take high amounts of vitamin C yourself, you will wind up with a buildup of hydrogen peroxide inside the body. Hydrogen peroxide is a DISINFECTANT. This is why vitamin C is so effective against viruses on its own.

(6,578 posts)I had an aunt that survived stage 4 breast cancer metastasis for 30 plus years and she swore it was Vit C in a fairly high dose 2500mg a day that helped her survive so long. And she was full of cancer. She had some early surgery& treatments for it, suspect regular chemo back then couldnt really say what kind it was. She died in her mid 70s and was diagnosed in her early 30s. Couldnt argue with her about it.
Here is a study about it that you may find interesting.

(19,182 posts)he wanted the scientists to miniaturize little maids that they'd inject into a corona virus victim's blood, then they'd stop at the lungs, clean everything up spic and span with......Spic and Span, and Lysol disinfectant, then move on to the nasal cavities and any other "dirty" corona virus spots, then exit through the urinary tract or fecal matter, be enlarged again, go home and get a good night's sleep, then repeat the process the next day with a new patient. Of course there's shortage of housekeeping personnel, what with his border cages and all, so where he thinks all of these "cleaners" are coming from is beyond me.

(6,133 posts)Surgically remove the alveoli, put them on a counter under a tanning light, spray them down with Lysol and a good scrub brush scrubbing, and surgically replace them.
Trump has been many things we would have been happy to continue to ignore, but when these American cretins helped elect him, the gloves were very off.
Damn it, hes killed 50,000. I dont know where this goes but only worst.

25.3.?Ozone Therapy
Since UBI is generally considered to be controversial, then ozone therapy is even more controversial. Ozone therapy consists of the introduction of ozone (O3) into the body via various methods, usually involving its mixture with various gases and liquids before injection, with potential routes including the vagina, rectum, intramuscular, subcutaneously, or intravenously Ozone can also be introduced via a process called autohemotherapy, in which blood is drawn from the patient, exposed to ozone and re-injected into the patient [75]
The United States Food and Drug Administration initially stated in 1976, and reiterated its position in 2006, that when inhaled, ozone is a toxic gas which has no demonstrated safe medical application, though their position statements primarily deal with its potential for causing inflammation and pulmonary edema in the lungs. Moreover there exist additional types of oxygen therapy involving hyperbaric oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, and various kinds of oxygenated water.

(10,823 posts)Rip the lungs out from the back and splay them over the patient's shoulders, then spray them with Lysol and/or paint with Clorox.
Easy-peasy, like an inner cleaning. And while you have those lungs splayed so nicely, you could expose them to sunshine. Lots of good, cleansing UV light.
What could go wrong? I mean what you have to lose? Your life, yes. But we've already been told there are more important things than living.
Just think how clean our lungs would be.
See what happens, as Dr. Trump might say.
