@jesse_b it really doesn't. Antibiotics would never be called disinfectants (they aren't, they are metabolic poisons for the bacterial cells). In any case, it's the basic premise that is flawed and dangerous: the fact that something does a good job cleaning a surface does not in any way imply that it could be, should be or could safely be injected.
even if it were safe, it wouldn't do the same thing
@terdon You have to look at context man, he was never talking about any kind of cleaner and the word "disinfectant" does not actually mean surface cleaner. It literally means "cause the destruction of bacteria". He was talking about actual research being done and made an uneducated statement about injecting something that hadn't been invented yet
@Kusalananda He was on a rant about some stuff he had heard about and didn't understand and was literally asking in the form of a question if there is anything we can invent to "disinfect" (Not the right word but also not technically incorrect) the body
If anything people should make fun of the fact that he basically said "Hey can't we just invent something that we can inject in our body to magically cure all illness?" instead of being hung up on the disinfectant word
@jesse_b The issue with his statements were the fact that it was the presidont of the USA making them, and that by making them (and others, for example the ones about the malaria medicine), he inspired several people to make ill-adviced attempts to protect or cure themselves or others, which ended up killing and hurting people.
"Presidont" was actually a pretty good word... I'm keeping that.
@Kusalananda anyone that drank or injected disinfectant either because of his statement or for any other reason hopefully did so before they reproduced because that is just natural selection in progress
And if anything I blame the media that twisted those words more than Trump himself
@jesse_b AFAIK, the ones listening to media's regurgitation of his words would not run the risk of making any mistakes, as most of media was horrified by what he seemed to suggest. Well, that's if you count the media sources that Trump didn't like.
@jesse_b Sorry, but this seems to say "serves them right".
I saw, I meant the style of that language "Urdu", it's like that page is turned up down, because all words up edge is mostly all in same position like underlined
