Peddlers of industrial bleach who urge Americans to drink the fluid as a “miracle cure” for cancer, HIV/Aids and other diseases have begun touting the product illegally as a treatment for the latest variants of Covid-19.

Chlorine dioxide, a powerful bleaching agent used in textile and paper manufacturing, is being compounded and sold out of a makeshift laboratory in Miami, Florida. The company, Oclo Nanotechnology Science, is playing on fears of the new strain of the coronavirus discovered in the UK, which is now spreading rapidly and widely through the US.

The UK variant, B117, is thought to be more transmissible and deadly than the initial form of the virus.

The Miami company is invoking B117 to drive up sales of its bleach products, which the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warns are potentially dangerous and can be life-threatening. The front page of Oclo’s website is dominated by a photograph of vials of its chlorine dioxide product billed as an “antiviral” treatment.


Pure evil, making money in this way :( I remember years ago a similar 'bleach cure' being peddled for diabetes :(


Drinking bleach, magnetic water,
The toenails of your first-born daughter,
Wearing tin foil underwear,
Eye of newt and nose of bear,
Whelk infusions, ultrasound,
Keep your earlobes tightly bound,
Drink fresh rat milk every night,
Never eat an egg that’s white,
Spend a weekend with a goat,
Wear some seaweed round your throat.
If a pig is facing West,
Rub some pickles on your chest,
Eat raw carrots by the pound,
Only eat a fruit that’s round,
Bathe each night in fresh manure –
All these guaranteed to cure!

If these don’t work, or you feel funny,
We don’t care – we’ve got your money! 😱 :(
 
There is more than a common language that separates the UK from the USA Thank God.

That‘s brilliant northerner! 🙂 (the poem I mean of course. The scams are dreadful and the bane of my life as an admin elsewhere. Nothing like cancer to bring out the bizarre, desperate and dangerous snake oil sellers!)
 
sadly people will do this like when Trump got them to do it

That press conference was priceless where he was asked about drinking bleach to cure covid, he looked back at his advisors for support & they rolled their eyes & stayed closed mouths, thank goodness Trump lost election, man was liability.
 
Best not to state what I think about The Donald generally on a public forum .......
