      Irony, anyone? He referenced UV blood irradiation to defend @realDonaldTrump's comments about "getting light inside" to kill #SARSCoV2 and treat #COVID19, apparently blissfully unaware that this is a quack treatment that has *never* been convincingly shown to treat anything.😂🤦🏻‍♂️https://twitter.com/TheBrandonMorse/status/1253682708066242565 …

      Seriously, though. If you start looking at who offers UV blood irradiation, it's mainly chiropractors, naturopaths, and "integrative medicine" quacks. It's quackery, plain and simple, and Mr. Morse owes me a new irony meter using it to defend Trump's remarks.

      What next? Inhaled nebulized hydrogen peroxide? Intravenous peroxide? Ozone therapy Trump's remarks will embolden quacks, including the #MMS quacks who treat autism with bleach enemas.

          And, as predicted, it’s already happening. The quacks are using Trump’s ignorant speculations to tout #MMS, UV blood irradiation, and hydrogen peroxide. 🤦🏻‍♂️https://respectfulinsolence.com/2020/04/24/president-trump-jaqing-about-disinfectants-uv-light/ …

          Some guy told me that fulvic acid and pomegranate juice was the solution. Told me to "Google it". Ugh.

          Genuinely just been arguing with a man promoting nebulised hydrogen peroxide like it was a legitimate treatment.

          The guy I came across who was promoting that was the same dude arrested for sneaking into hospitals in NZ during the measles outbreak and attempting to treat the kids despite having no license and no consent.

          A FOOF (Dioxygen difluoride) enema, surely. I wouldn't worry about coronavirus if I had a couple of liters of that around. Mostly because everything would be on fire, but that's just a detail.
