United States:many calls about the ingestion of disinfectant after the declaration of Donald Trump

United States President Donald Trump recently proposed investigating the possibility of injecting disinfectant into the lungs to kill Covid-19. After this aberrant declaration, calls for information on this subject multiplied in the country.

A surreal statement

After having minimized the impact of Covid-19 at the start of the epidemic, Donald Trump has again made an exit of which only he has the secret. On April 24, 2020, the person concerned declared during an information meeting at Maison Balnche:

“I find that disinfectants kill the virus in a minute, a minute. Wouldn't there be a way to do something like that by injecting it inside or almost, like cleaning? As you can see, it gets into the lungs, it does an awful lot of things there, so it would be interesting to check that out. »

Obviously many scholars and politicians were stunned by the nature of this statement . On social networks, the world is divided between indignation and mockery. Moreover, if the Head of State quickly returned to his remarks, believing that he had been sarcastic, the latter once again turned around. Indeed, Donald Trump would have indeed asked government experts to study the issue.

Multiplying calls

As Newsweek explains, the Maryland State Emergency Line as well as the New York Poison Control Center have seen a very significant spike in calls after the president leaves. Indeed, many citizens wish to obtain information on the injection of disinfectants such as bleach.

Maryland State Emergency Line even posted a tweet to clarify things (see below). It was recalled that under no circumstances should a disinfectant product be administered into the body by injection. Moreover, no product of this type should penetrate the body , no matter how. We should also mention the British company Reckitt Benckiser (RB), which manufactures several household disinfectants. This company has published a statement reminding that it is absolutely not necessary to inject or ingest this type of product.

Fortunately, the authorities did not observe any deaths related to this serious and incredible affair. In these difficult times, heads of state and other political figures bear great responsibility , particularly with regard to their communication. Indeed, some people overwhelmed by fear are likely to believe what is being said here and there about Covid-19.

Recall that a month ago, around 300 people died in Iran after taking fake news seriously on social media. Victims thought they could kill the coronavirus in their bodies by drinking alcohol high strength methanol type.
