Response to Ingesting Disinfectants

My response - Don’t.

Background from The New York Times:

“Doctors and health experts urged people not to drink or inject disinfectant on Friday after U.S. President Donald Trump suggested scientists should investigate inserting the cleaning agent into the body as a way to cure COVID-19. "This is one of the most dangerous and idiotic suggestions made so far in how one might actually treat COVID-19," said Paul Hunter, a professor of medicine at Britain's University of East Anglia. He said injecting disinfectants would likely kill anyone who tried it.”

Or as the maker of Lysol said in a press release in response to Trumps suggestion:

“As a global leader in health and hygiene products, we must be clear that under no circumstance should our disinfectant products be administered into the human body (through injection, ingestion or any other route).“

The Onion predicted this nearly a month before Trump made this suggestion:
