Earlier this week, President Donald Trump made remarks that led disinfectant companies and the White House send out warnings to people that they should not inject disinfectants as it may kill you.

During a daily press briefing, President Trump said:

The virus dies quickest in sunlight. So supposing we hit the body with a tremendous — whether it’s ultraviolet or just a very powerful light — and I think you said that hasn’t been checked because of the testing and then I said, supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or some other way, and I think you said you’re going to test that, too. I see the disinfectant that knocks it out in a minute, one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside or almost a cleaning? As you see, it gets in the lungs, it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it would be interesting to check that.

After his speech, people all over the world either criticized President Trump or believed in what he said.

Lee Norman, a state health officer, said that the head of the Kansas Poison Control Center reported a 40 percent increase in cleaning chemical cases.

During a news conference, Norman said:

Including a fellow over the weekend who drank a product because of the advice he’d received.

It is not clear where and who gave the advice to the man, but it is no doubt that the remarks of Donald Trump made an impact.

Please remember, drinking or injecting bleach, hand sanitizers, and other disinfectants are extremely fatal, and in some cases, you could die.

FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn said:

Hand sanitizers are not proven to treat COVID-19, and like other products meant for external use, are not for ingestion, inhalation, or intravenous use.

Lysol, Dettol, and other major companies that make disinfectants released a statement about the remarks of President Trump and told people that their products are not digestible.
