It’s hard for anyone to take you seriously, I suspect the light you see is glare from the foil hat you where. On a side note, my boys report multiple EMS calls and ER trips for people with severe gastrointestinal burns after drinking the wrong stuff, that’s Boston and here on the south shore. Proving again, some people are very easily pushed in the wrong direction when they are scared and most importantly the words of the president matter. Keep the idiot away from the podium.
The FDA had to issue a warning to NOT take hydroxychloriquin and after Trumps idiotic briefing, the White House had to issue a warning for Americans to NOT consider drinking or injecting themselves with disinfectants. Two markers for where we are and when the second wave comes I wonder what miracle cure Trump might throw in the air.

It's far from over, but most in the medical community believe we're going to fare much better than original models forecasted. There's basically a consensus on that.
"the White House had to issue a warning for Americans to NOT consider drinking or injecting themselves with disinfectants."
Because of the way that your side spun what he actually said.
Do you see a meaningful difference, between asking if something could ever be possible. and suggesting that people do it today?
It would have been better had Trump asked that in private. Not that there's anything inherently wrong with asking if something is possible, but he should have known how dishonestly your side would spin it.
And if asking if light or disinfectants could ever be a help here is so stupid to ask, why are scientists doing trials to see if disinfectants (chlorine in this case) and UV light can help? Scientists are currently exploring the same avenues that he asked about.
