“So as a Respiratory Therapist....I watched the clip about the "disinfectant that Trump talking about". People need to listen closely....and before I say this, I will tell you that I am not registered to vote and I don't vote. I am neutral. He is basically brain storming for an idea to help the lungs. He stated that the disinfectant kills the virus in one minute, so he proposed the question can we inject disinfectant (not Lysol), he used the word "disinfectant" ...in the lungs, but that is for the doctors to figure out. Now a lay person like Trump will say disinfectant and a medical person would say "medicine". Medicine dumped into the lungs happens all the time! I personally have dumped respiratory medicine down an Endotracheal tube directly into the lungs. When babies are born prematurely, guess what? Yes we "inject" the lungs with a medicine called surfactant that helps keep the alveoli open to oxygenate the lungs. Antibiotics are sometimes injected into infected parts of lungs through a chest tube. So what I want the general public to know, is that we do "inject" medicine into peoples lungs, that yes act like a disinfectant (antibiotics), so why is everyone in uproar over this? If you are a lay person and don't understand what he said then ask a medical person. His statement was so twisted around and misinterpreted, and this is coming from a Respiratory Therapist that has injected medicine in peoples lungs. Lysol brand has perpetrated misinformation and panicked the general public who doesn't know anything about lungs. And Trump never used the word "Lysol". So why did Lysol brand think he was talking about them, that's narcissistic on their part. Why would Lysol brand embrace that? they look ignorant. So people, yes we do inject medicine into the lungs! This is why people need to know the facts and stop panicking people.”



*** oh and check this out

If only Trump had clarified instead of saying he was being sarcastic.

A respiratory therapist and she doesn't even use the word disinfectant correctly. Disinfectant has a specific use and that's chemicals to sterilize the surfaces of non-living things.

She alleged it, and she's just straight up wrong. No doctor calls a medicine a disinfectant. Literally nobody trained properly in medicine will call anything but a disinfectant a disinfectant. I get the feeling she's more of a nurse and is way outside her knowledge zone speaking about this.

And then she calls antibiotics disinfectants. She's just ignorant.

I don't care what this person thinks they know. They're just wrong, dude.

Edit: This quote doesn't exist anywhere on the internet except for a Facebook group post in a far-right group. I don't trust it at all.

Trump has already said he was being sarcastic, so why are you still making up respiratory therapist comments to defend it

Ah yes. Only experts in their field say medicine instead of disinfectant.

That's the exact quote I'm referring to, dude. Then she's a lay person I guess, because she goes on to use disinfectant incorrectly in her entire post. So she's obviously not a medical person.

TRUST ME, just drop this, dude. Or I'm going to start quoting Trump.

“When you use it when you’re doing your hands,” Trump added. “I guess that’s one of the reasons they say wash your hands, but whether it’s washing hands or disinfectant on your hands, it’s very good. So, they’re going to start looking at that. And there is a way of, you know, if light — if sun, sun itself that sun has a tremendous impact on or kills it...”

Maybe his comment about his comment being sarcastic was actually the sarcastic comment.

There is no source. He's obviously a member of this Facebook group, the only place on the internet where that quote exists, and just took it at face value.

Actually LSU Med Center and several other major universities are studying Nitric oxide inhalation. This sounds pretty much like what Trump was talking about at first.
Antibiotics are disinfectants for bacteria in your body.

You have to take some of the things Trump says with a grain of salt. I mean there's no way he really meant for people to start injecting or inhaling Lysol disinfectant. How dumb do you have to be?

That being said injecting medications into the lungs happens, injecting Epinephrine straight to the endotracheal tube happens if you struggle to get a line on a patient. Of course its better to have IV or IO access but it can still be done.
