AND FOR THOSE WHO HOARD SURGICAL MASKS...
CLAIM: Surgical masks protect against the new coronavirus.
THE FACTS: Medical masks alone cannot protect against being infected with the new coronavirus. WHO advised that the masks should be worn by those showing symptoms of coughing and difficulty breathing, so they don’t spread disease to others. There is no evidence that masks protect people who are not sick.
AND FOR THOSE WHO TOUT THE BENEFITS OF COLLOIDAL SILVER:
CLAIM: Colloidal silver products can help prevent or protect against the new coronavirus from China.
THE FACTS: The silver solution has no known benefits in the body when it is ingested, according to officials with the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health, a federal scientific research agency. Colloidal silver is made up of silver particles suspended in a liquid. The liquid solution is often pushed as a miracle solution to boost the immune system and cure diseases. Experts have long said the solution has no known health benefits and can cause serious side effects. The FDA has taken action against companies promoting colloidal silver products with misleading claims.
thanks for the post, informative

The one about "purple blood bad, red blood good..." is particularly hilarious. Are the Bottom Half of the Bell Curve people REALLY that dense?
For those that don't know, or don't care, purple blood isn't oxygenated. Expose it to air, BOOM, instant bright red. (That little phenomenon keeps you alive.)
Anyone know how much vitimin C should be taken to boost immune system? I know the body can only handle so much, but how much is recommended if possible?
CLAIM: Garlic can help cure the new coronavirus.
THE FACTS: There is no evidence that garlic cures the virus. While garlic does have antimicrobial properties, WHO said that there is no evidence that eating garlic will help with the virus.
BUT, and this is a BIG but, garlic DOES help ward off vampires ...
You could call it a pandemic of alarmist Coronavirus fake news and it continues to spread.
