Coronavirus: Trump ' s disinfectant and sunlight claims actually reviewed

Feb 27,2020 5:37 pm

President, Donald Trump has questioned whether the injection of people with disinfectant and exposing The Body of the patient to ultraviolet help light could treat the coronavirus.

We looked, in both of these hypotheses.

statement 1"I see the disinfectant, where it knocks, it in a minute. And there is a possibility That we can Do Something like That by injection from the inside, or almost a cleaning agent, because you see, it is in the lungs, and there is a huge number going on in the lungs. "

Mr Trump suggests That injecting patients with a disinfectant can help treat coronavirus.

With a disinfectant can kill viruses on surfaces, but this is only about the infected objects and surfaces, not about what happens when The Virus in your body.

Not only consume or inject a disinfectant risk of poisoning and death, it is not even likely to be effective.

the Doctors have appealed to the people, do not ingest or inject a disinfectant, because it concerns people think That this is a good idea, and die.

"The bleach or disinfectant, the dose required to neutralize viruses, which would in the circulating blood to says likely to have significant, irreversible damage and probably a very unpleasant death", Rob Chilcott, a professor of toxicology at the University of Hertfordshire . "

He adds That it is also "not a lot of effect on viral particles within the cells".

Reckitt Benckiser , one of the leading manufacturers of disinfecting products, including Lysol and Dettol, has issued a statement in response to The President 's comments. He said: "We must be clear That under no circumstances will our disinfectant products should be administered in the Human Body (by injection, ingestion or any other route). "

statement 2:"I said, assuming That you brought The Light in the interior of The Body , you can do either through The Skin , or in any other way. And I think you said, you are going to test also. So, we'll see, but the whole concept, The Light , The Way It Kills , is it in a minute - That 's pretty powerful. "

Mr Trump has also the idea of the revelation of the patient floated to "ultra-violet or just a very powerful light."

There is some evidence That , in General, viruses on surfaces die quickly when exposed to direct sunlight. But we don't know how much or how long you have to be exposed to UV light to effect.

And again, this is only about the infected objects and surfaces, which happens about, what if The Virus in your body.

by The Time The Virus has taken hold in your body, no amount of UV light will make your skin a difference.

"UV irradiation and High Heat are known to says to kill The Virus particles on surfaces", Dr. Penny municipality, visiting Professor for pharmaceutical medicine at Kings College in London. But "to sit either in The Sun or heating, to kill a virus replication in an individual patient of the internal organs".
