A leading asthma patient group has issued a warning against a coronavirus treatment circulating on social media that is leading some people to post videos of themselves breathing in hydrogen peroxide through a nebulizer....“DO NOT put hydrogen peroxide into your nebulizer and breathe it in. This is dangerous!” wrote the foundation in a brief blog post.
Where does this shit come from? Seriously, who is it that makes up this random stuff? And what accounts for which weird treatments catch on and which ones don't?
What's next? Laetril?
We had a good run but the Democrats really need to figure out a way for states to secede legally from the US. That way at least there’s a future for some parts of the US. Otherwise, the stupid states will just drag us all down.
No need to secede. Just a bunch of carefully crafted interstate compacts would fix 99% of this.
Interstate compacts won't end Federal employment and income taxes, the numeros uno and dos source of funding for the Taker States.
They have a concept of illness that emphasizes purging the body of contamination. That's why they advocate for bleach, dewormer, disinfectants, etc.
It's *literally* the medieval humoral theory of medicine redux. I suspect bloodletting and leeches are next, what with Covid just being the result of an excess of blood humor, particularly when Mars is in the sixth house.
There should be a tarot card of a figure stepping on a rake.
Lol!
Great visual.
Leeches really work!
Nothing purges the body like shining an ultra-violet light up your ass.
Do they have anything to disinfect the brain?
See J. Frank Parnell's comment about shining an ultra-violet light up one's ass.
Self-flagellation for their sins would be more appropriate, if they insist on suffering.
At least if they also got vaccinated, it would protect others, too.
Can't imagine what would have happened if everyone had objected to all of the other vaccines developed pre-covid.
I suspect it comes from people who intentionally create and spread disinformation in order to cause harm to others.
Now now, we Discordians may love spreading disinformation, but our goal has always been to trick people into thinking more for themselves. That said, I think these fools came up with this stupid idea on their own.
Lol I wish. If that power existed just go straight for recommending suicide and save us all some time.
I love Darwin.
Agreed. I'm quite grateful that these fine patriots have chosen to remove themselves from the gene pool and the voter rolls in advance of 2022.
Kevin,
I've done my own research about Laetril's benefits and posted my findings on Twitter, Facebook, and Reddit about how it's very effective in protecting you from COVID. Big Pharma knows this but they force the media, from MSNBC to Fox, to keep the public from knowing about it.
Laetril is even more effective if you also take Vitamin D supplements and drink caffeine-free diet Pepsi.
IF we could start the rumor that D stands for 'de-wormer' they would actually buy it and accidentally not kill themselves.
That's
If . . .
careful--vitamin D is toxic at high doses....
Dude it depends on sunlight and absorbtion. As research indicates, most people need 5-10 thousand IU just to keep up with optimization which is 50-70 nm/ml. I need 10-12 iu or it falls below 50. Typical self righteous douchebag.

I think the very first step is establishing just how much of this is happening IN REAL LIFE.
I'm older enough to have been through dozens of moral panics. Most of the readers here are old enough to have been through at least a few. And yet, almost no-one learns from them!
The same people who mock earlier moral panics (Comics code? Rock music? Video games?) are eager to leap onto some new moral panic, whether it's wojack or pepe, 4chan or facebook; eager to behave exactly like the parents they mocked when they were young; utterly incapable of remembering the game of "fool the adult", of remembering LizardMan's Constant, of remembering just how gullible the media are and always have been.
It's a big country. Every day you will find ten idiots doing something. But if you insist that those ten idiots represent some trend about the entire population, well, congratulations, you have joined that population of idiots.
Unfortunately, the other day I found 74,000,000 idiots voting for Trump.
4Chan is a zionist/Russian created pedo site. Nobody ever mentions that, instead just falling for its cover via Stormfront light. A facade of posters who probably are all the same guy.
This is from the same source that continues to give grade school teachers the genius idea they should hold slave auctions with their students.
I suspect many of these fools would do even more deadly things as science is far beyond their idiotic dogma. Self annihilation. Let them at it. The fewer of them left the better.
????????????
The fewer of them the better. I've had enough of the profoundly stupid.
Well, if it was good enough for Steve McQueen…
Johnny Yuma was a rebel . . . opps, getting my childhood western's mixed up.
So instead of a FDA fully approved vaccine, people are taking Hydrogen peroxide, horse dewormer (taking amounts for a 1,200 pound horse), gargling with iodine, and the all time MAGA favorite, hydroxychloroquine. It's real simple, these people are fucking morons.
We raised horses until recently and have a huge stockpile of ivermectin. We also need a new heavy equipment shed and I have been trying to figure out a good way to sell the stuff - maybe auction to the highest bidder. I am convinced there would be an unending supply of the galactically stupid (Repigs, mostly) who would pay 10x its actual value.
Liquid gold.
If it weren't for the government you could pay your taxes with it.
What did you expect?

Well now. I guess this makes shoving a UV light up your butt worthy of a Nobel Peace Prize for Medicine doesn't it?
Seriously some great discoveries were made doing some weird crap.
Today Michael Flynn said the deep state will put the vaccine in your salad dressing!!
Of course this guy just misses the stars on his shoulders so we should cut him some slack.
I have heard they put the vaccines in Ivermectin and in liquid form in bleach.
"Deep State" my ass..........
Flynn is homo and hates America.
They're also swallowing Betadine, by accident, from gargling too much of it.
All of these cures have a basic underlying theory: There is a cheap, existing solution (HCL, bleach, Betadine, Ivermectin, Zinc, vitamin D, vitamin C , H2O2) that is being hidden by Big Pharma.
Vit D is big pharma. I had such a bad deficiency in it a few years ago, was losing the ability to walk and knocked my legs out alignment. Likewise, low vit d underamps the immune system. But your retarded and it shows.
You must be very talented. Rickets is well known to the medical profession but very rare in the modern era, due to fortification of milk and some other foods with vitamin D. You obviously had a very unusual diet.
The fact is that, just like ordinary salt, vitamin D is an essential nutrient in the proper dose but an overdose is toxic and can be fatal.
Milk doesn't come close to filling in the gap.
You need to pull your ass out of the basement and get more sun. Also, "your retarded" is kind of funny.
I was just reading about the "Herman Cain" awards sub-reddit...
https://slate.com/technology/2021/09/hermancainaward-subreddit-antivaxxer-deaths-cataloged.html
Of course those making money off promoting non-sense are more than likely vaccinated themselves and/or take real treatments for Covid if infected...they just can't let on....
Who cares. The amount of people that go for this are low. But let's make a meaningful post about it. How about instead on the overblown and overhyped "delta covid wave".
Go to Hell. Go straight to Hell. Do not pass Purgatory. Do not collect 200 Indulgences. Go directly to Hell.
It's a waste of breath, so to speak - all because WordPress lacks an "ignore" button. Often wonder about the syntax used by trolls, ev ef n if they're not in St. Petersburg or Macedonia.
Who waffles. The amount of pancakes that go for waffle are low. But let's make a meaningful pancake about it. How about instead on the waffle and pancake "waffle pancake wave".
This follows exactly on Trump's idea of curing covid by applying disinfectant. Hydrogen peroxide, like bleach, is a very powerful disinfectant; if inhaled it will definitely kill viruses in your lungs. It will also kill healthy lung tissue, but that's just a detail.
breathing hydrogen peroxide is obv insane, but coincidentally i was just reading about research into delivery of antibiotics directly into the lungs via liquid ventilation. kinda cool idea. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s004310050625
"Seriously, who is it that makes up this random stuff?"
Warped, sadistic people with no conscience. People for whom I'm an enthusiastic supporter of the death penalty.
Says it originates with an osteopath. I wouldn't be at all surprised if that is true for the rest of the bogus treatments as well.
Wasn't this one of Trump's ideas? Everybody thought he said bleach, but all he really said was sanitizing in there while making a rubbing motion with his hand.
No, "hp" therapy goes back to the 90's with Bill Munro. Then in the 2000's Mercola, added it as part of his snake oil routine.
I actually met, and threatened to torture and denut Mike Adams in 2014. He told he is part of the elite, a con man similar to the rise of JDR in the 1800's. Back before the internet, these kind of grifters had trouble getting any pull. It's the same reason why "lefty" new agers in the 90's like jewy Rob Schneider and Billy Corgan bailed. They saw the money potential and supplement industry, with some benefits and sold out.
They all follow the same path: Lindall, Trump, Jones, Adams, Mercola, Oz. Mind control for the elite, by the elite and with the eljte. Creating take dialectical nonsense to control.the sheep. Mike Flynn should take note, making sheet up does not impress true naturopath people like me. Adams denials on climate change show what a fraud he is. Fossil fuel pollution is the Trojan horse of the naturopathic revolution. Predicted since the early 1800's. Let's keep on sucking in fossil fuel pollution Mike.????
The only unfortunate thing is that a very small minority will believe this to be true, but then add THAT to the very small minority that believes UV lights is a cure, bleach is a cure, ivermectin is a cure and hdroxychloriquine is too. Now combined they have some numbers to them but then add this to those who do not trust Big Pharma along with the historically low numbers of people who cannot take a vaccine or for either health or religious reasons and you can see why this becomes important.
BTW - we are all reading too much into the stats lately. "Oh the numbers declined in this state so the trend is positive" "oh the blue states have higher numbers of vaccinated so COVID is declining"
Regardless of your political beliefs, the CDC, the NIH, and WHO are all predicting another wave within the next 4 to 6 weeks. Hospitalizations and deaths to follow closely behind.
The pandemic is not over - not by a long shot.
16% of Americans have doubts about whether the Earth is round.
Granted only 2% are convinced that it is indeed flat.
That's about 5 million adults.
Next time you reflect on irrationality in American society, consider that bit of data...
Actually do not think that is so horrible. The earth does seem to be flat based on the evidence people can see with their own senses in their daily lives.
To understand it is round, you have to believe what other people tell you is true rather than what your own eyes see , or maybe be in a place and have enough sophistication to see evidence that it could be round ( i.e. sailors seeing ships go down over the horizon).
So that 16% have some doubt when their own senses conflict with what they are told is no surprise.
And personally do I have some doubts whether the earth is round? Of course I do. Anyone logical should have " some ", just very small. Hell, I have some small doubts whether anything except myself is real !
It's called solipism. Which ends being a philosophical dead end.
Not to mention that assuming that only yourself is real, leads to the question as to how reliable is that assumption. Perhaps you all are just subroutines, that are programmed to think that that they are real and autonomous.
I think therfore I am. Seems self evident to me. Whether I am just programmed subroutines or not, my sentience makes me real.
Your second paragraph is the type of thing that scares me as seems you do not see that and I cannot understand why not if you are sentient too.
In actual practice, no matter how much of a possibility there is that I am the only real thing, it is a dead end as there is no point to taking that possibility into account in anything I choose.
Vog,
Where are you seeing that cdc, who and nih are all predicting another wave , and especially within 4 to 6 weeks? Might it be that you are thinking that is true because of your beliefs?
There was just a consensus model released yesterday by cdc advisors showing a continued decline through spring next year with cases going below 10k a day. Personally I think that is possible but may be too optimistic.
There is some concern that there MIGHT be another wave but that is not a prediction. And , of course, if a new worse variant appears, who knows?
I think the three main uncertainties are how much vaccine and natural immunity wanes ( I know you are far more pessimistic there), how much weather affects spread, and if there will be a new much worse variant.
What worries me is we just might be underestimating the weather effect . Last year, we had winter coincide with alpha emergence which made it hard to see how much weather played a role. I am starting to think that it was the bigger factor not alpha.
And one thing you said, as something not to put much faith in, was " blue states have high numbers of vaccinated so covid is declining ".
That is no longer true . Look at the recent case numbers. Cases now seem to be increasing somewhat more in the blue states with high vaccinations than in red states with low vaccinations ( case numbers still higher in red states). And more so every day .
And this seems to be related to geography. Which red states with lower vaccinations are cases still increasing? Those is the north like Alaska and Montana. And which blue states are decreasing? Those in the south .
If vaccination looked to be explaining different case rates changes, that would be good news as long as we keep vaccinating, should be getting even better. But, as it appears weather is again a huge issue, that portends maybe bad news this winter, at least for northern states .
If change in weather by freaking September already shows some significant effect, what will it be in December.
In May, while everyone was complacent because cases were low and still dropping, the trouble signal was that delta cases were rising fast even if not yet a big %age . You could see thus wave coming then.
I think this is an example of reading too much into current stats .
What many here have recently been doing is reading too much into case levels in the summer and comparing red southern states like fla to blue northern states like Minnesota. And thinking that the problem is all the bad republican policies and vaccination differences and not considering weather.
And assuming that will stay the same for winter . It will not . By winter the blue northern states will be harder hit by any new wave than the southern red states. And fla will be have one of the lowest case rates .
Weather? Or indoor activity? (or both?)
Complacency? Yes that helped Delta. Outright obnoxiousness by those avoiding vaccines, refusal to wear masks and WANTING to catch CV to get "natural" immunity may be the "New" complaceny. Too many people are objecting for very dubious reasons. They are also objecting FOR their kids who are back in school.
As for variants? R1(?) tore through a nursing home. Far too many break through cases. It has now been discovered in multiple states. Will it over take Delta? We are at the point now where the first round of vaccines are 9 months old.
We also know the first available vaccine PFizer is the weakest of the big 3. WE also know that this is now NOT just an older adult problem, older adult with health issues problem. We are seeing far too many young adults AND Children getting COVID. so now instead of having half the population as a breeding ground, for Alpha and Beta we now have the entire population at the variants disposal except those who are at peak protection. And this very same group is the one we DIDN'T test in the first 3 waves - so we don't know WHO has had an asymptomatic case before and may have HAD "natural immunity" prior to getting either Delta, Mu, or R1.
Faucci said he expected another wave yesterday if I am not mistaken. Cases to rise followed by deaths. Mostly of the un-vaccinated, of course.
Think of the reporting on this RT. Just 1.5 months ago Israel was reporting a MUCH higher than average break through case rate. They are now issuing 3rd round doses of Pfizer and prepping a 4th
Sometimes we have to step back to look at the forest before we try to see the trees.
BTW - everyone is wrong. The earth is neither flat nor round
It's a dodecahedron
Vog,
You just jumped from hearing fauci said something to saying that cdc, nih and who are certainly predicting a winter wave in 4 to 6 weeks? You really do seem to sometimes throw out unsupported exaggerated statements that fit your political instincts and I have to learn to stop taking you seriously I guess.
Weather is what causes a lot of indoor activity . That is the major effect weather has. Basically saying same thing .
And I tend to think there is a good chance we will have some sort of a mini wave, muted and only in some areas. But not starting in 4 weeks and probably not by 6 although possible.
The fact that we are having waves at all means one thing
The virus - which is a living thing is still spreading be it in the UN vacicinated or those that are vaccinated
The virus itself mutates because we, for whatever reason can not contain it yet. This is why the CDC and WHO WANT the U.S. to donate vaccine doses to the world rather than give out booster shots. And an uncontained virus will continue to mutate - with the last few mutations having the unusual characteristics of evading vaccine protection which is why they believe we will continue to have waves of virus variants.
"Basically saying the same thing" is not the same. Going indoors means closer proximity to others using heating systems - especially in schools, at a time when DELTA is "the rage" and it affects young children MUCH more so than the previous variants. So why do it? Why object to masks in schools that many are objecting to?
Until we get the majority of people vaccinated, with a KNOWN time frame of protection and at the same time limit the amount of travel from other countries (or have testing requirements) we will NOT get this under control. Heck even within the US we have some states that refused to push vaccines and are NOW paying the price. First with the old and in-firmed in Nursing Homes but now with children and younger adults. This should not have happened
