Between this and the horse dewormer, I feel like this is all nonsense cooked up by some internet trolls to see what people will believe. It's just too stupid to be real.
Oh, this whole thing is the manufactured outgrowth of malicious state actors and other powerful entities on the world stage. It's seeded by bad actors like Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, etc... Any government looking to destabilize the current Western world powers. Then stupid morons and grifters here domestically do the rest of the leg work.

It's a self perpetuating disinformation age dystopian nightmare.

It's interesting that these alternatives are hardly ever safe options. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if this was all some sort of long con to filter gullible idiots out of the gene pool...

People unironically following Q shit proves that anything is possible--and that our society is in deep and potentially permanent decline.

Yeah none of these are like "Oh, eat more keratine. Maybe eat some blueberries"

Instead their go-to is "GRAB SOME SHIT OUT OF YOUR GARAGE/CLEANING SUPPLY CLOSET AND START CHUGGING"

Amazing that the decades of advancements in medical science has allowed people to easily live through things that were previously life-threatening long enough to start denying that same science so they can kill themselves by not taking the safety measures they took all their life to keep them from dying to a common cold. It really just comes full circle.

All of this due to some politicians egos and some natural health grifters trying to sell product and/or get views.

Reminds me of this Twitter thread from today from Ben Collins, who has been monitoring these communities for NBC.

At least they'll be prepared for when one of those idiots starts pushing Radium as a cure all for Coronavirus.

A lot of this conspiracy theory stuff sounds like it was made up by asshats who are just throwing out whatever they can come up with to see who they can trick into poisoning themselves.

There is a betadine gargle commercially available. It's a diluted version of the regular antiseptic solution and of course it's still not meant to be ingested either.
Of course it's not meant to be used in case of viral infection because it does fuck all against those.

Shit like this is why aliens don't want to talk to us
We really must look like morons to them

"Wait wait wait. They have the vaccine. Why do they take this other shit instead?"

"Perhaps this species has somehow lost its genetic programming for survival?"

"Makes sense. They're a lost cause. Let's go visit these badasses right by Alpha Centauri."

From 'quake area to big OH.
Are they washing the paste down with this?

It feels like trolls are spreading crazy things to see what freedumb fools will follow.

Next week it will be using a neti pot with ammonia.

This might seem like a stupid question but is there no Betadine gargle in the west? Or are these stupid antivaxxers using the topical version for wounds?

I mean surely it's either a variant of COVID that'll get em (where other strains failed) eventually or ingesting this crap.

Please put a picture of the betadine gargle in the OP. This exists and is widely used for sore throats / common colds. It's ridiculous to use it instead of a vaccine, but its miles and miles away from freaking horse paste.

Yeah, I was wondering if the gargle does not exist in the west but seeing the replies here I would think the Betadine gargle is safer than Ivermectin or whatever.

Medical science has come so far but stupidity is still incurable.

Nothing says "prophylaxis" like using something that'll soothe symptoms that present themselves when you're already infected.

According to the article, they're using the topical kind for cuts and wounds, not the gargle. Either way, it does not seem either are proven to kill COVID-19 effectively.
