On Saturday, he said, a man in his 50s living southwest of Atlanta was hospitalized after drinking several ounces of bleach “to prevent Covid.” He was moved to a psychiatric ward before being discharged.

“He said that he took 16 ounces,” the director said. “I don’t know very many patients who will take 16 ounces, but then again, it is a psych history patient.”

On Sunday, a man in his 30s who lives in the Atlanta area ingested a mixture of Pine-Sol, mouthwash, beer and pain medications. He also has since been discharged.

And they lived?

Bummer, could have counted it as another coronavirus death.

This is the state of our media. Trump mentions a valid real medical treatment and in an attempt to paint him as a moron they have caused idiots and mental cases to do harm to themselves.

How many people normally consume cleaning products?

I’m guessing it’s not zero in a country of 350 million people.

I think he was hoping for a different outcome and had no intentions of curing himself from cornoavirus.

Too bad he didn’t mix the bleach and the Pine-Sol....

I can not believe they admitted this in the article.
Someone's editor fell asleep at the wheel, again

The media is responsible for this. The actual quote from Trump talking to the HHS guy (or whomever it was) was not remotely anything that anyone (even NOT in his right mind) would've heard and taken as a suggestion to ingest or inject disinfectant, but for the media's harping on it, misquoting it and taking it out of context.

To the downvoters here: please out yourself, so we can get you the help you need.

The headline itself is misleading and encourages Georgia men to drink disinfects. Should read “drank”.

He even fricking said it in the same damn press conference but you won't see it in the news anywhere:

quote:

“It wouldn’t be through injections, you’re talking about almost a cleaning and sterilization of an area,” said Trump. “Maybe it works, maybe it doesn’t work, but it certainly has a big effect if it’s on a stationary object.”

If a person is dumb enough to drink bleach or disinfectant it's not on anyone else but them.

This is turning into the Tide Pod situation from a few years back.

If you’re really that dumb to do this you’ll get zero sympathy from me no matter how much the equally dumb media tries to make me feel sorry for you.
