Not that it’s any less ridiculous, but think was a chlorox bath, not hydroxychloroquine, unless you’re thinking of something else? Also, that was Chris Cuomo’s wife. I can’t find anything about Governor Cuomo’s wife and anything like this.
Yes, I think I might have mixed up the Cuomos. But articles at the time definitely said hydroxychloroquine. Another I just looked up said that it was a quinine, a derivative.
It looks like Chris Cuomo is on a complete bullshit medical regimen, if that article is correct. This is apparently part of his ‘corona protocol’ treatment:
- 2 AntiViril-3x daily (vegetable capsules with andrographis [above-ground parts], taraxcum [whole plant], lonerica japonica [flower bud])
- 1 OKO-3x daily (stabilized oxygen, potentized quinine 3x homeopathic dilution prepared in Sac Lac base)
- 3 KappArest-3x daily
- Respiratory Response-1 dropperful 3x a day (derived from passion flower, olive leaf, andrographis and others)
- AlkaC-3x daily, in water, AM + PM 6000 mlg
- Belladonna (fever)-2 pellets 3-4x daily
- Tylenol (taken as needed)
- Allegra D-1x daily
- Glutathione powder-1 scoop daily, in water
- Vitamin D-6000 mg daily
- Rhus Tox (aches)-2 pellets 3-4x daily
- Gelsemium (chills)-2 pellets 3-4x daily
- Camphora (chest)-2 pellets 2x daily (do not take at the same time as any other remedies)
- Echinacea/OSHA compound-1 dropper full 3x daily
- CoQ (antioxidant that supports nervous system)-1x daily
- Magnesium citrate-2 at bedtime
- Sunlighten sauna-30 minutes daily
- Outdoor walk in backyard-15-30 minutes daily”
Well, at least the outdoor walk will do him some good. No word if he’s had a shaman shake some chicken bones over him, or if he’s had a Reiki practitioner remove the bad energy from his body.
Yeah, that’s all pretty much bullshit.
I just realized a real ‘benefit’ of homeopathy: B ecause the dilutions are so extreme, they usually don’t have to worry about drug interactions, toxicity or side effects of whatever cockamamie cocktail they want to cook up to distinguish themselves from the combetition and obfuscate the bullshit a little more.
That list is crazy. It might as well be alchemy.
Well, sure, if there may be less than one particle of medicine per universe, you don’t really have to worry about drug interactions. I love this take from the Wikipedia page on homeopathy:
A popular homeopathic treatment for the flu is a 200C dilution of duck liver, marketed under the name Oscillococcinum. As there are only about 10^80 atoms in the entire observable universe, a dilution of one molecule in the observable universe would be about 40C. Oscillococcinum would thus require 10^320 more universes to simply have one molecule in the final substance.
All this talk about molecules & universes totally misses the point. The whole point of homeopathetic formulations is the molecules must be eliminated through dilution.
That’s the only way the healing vibrations left behind in the water from those now-missing molecules can ring through loud and clear and do their healing magic profitable bullshit.
Has anyone ever checked to see if the companies selling water, uh, homeopathic medicine, are actually going through the effort of making a solution, shaking it properly, diluting it, etc.? I mean, even at 12X, the amount of medicine is getting pretty low and it’s not possible to check for those vibrations.
Your chakra needs to be properly tuned.
I have no idea about every company, but many homeopaths are dead serious and take their dilutions seriously. It’s the only way to fool yourself into believing you are helping people and not just stealing money from the sick - which is what is really happening.
I remember those happy days when we were promised government regulation of medicine was needed to stop the bad old days of snake oil salesmen. Now my province doesn’t just allow, but funds numerous bullshit treatments including homeopathy and acupuncture clinics, and my local pharmacy’s ‘wellness and natural medicine’ section is the same size as the section for actual medicine. My local grocery store has a large collection of homeopathic treatments, Himalayan salt lamps and other complete bullshit.
Ugh.
I guess the salt lamps could be useful in an emergency – after the zombie apocalypse, where will you get salt to keep your meat and fish fresh?
Yeah, but you have to keep all those cows away. They love salt licks.
The big irony here is that a true homeopath would not in fact prescribe something like hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19. The true “remedy” would be the SARS CoV-2 itself.
If I understand my bullshit remedies, I think they would prescribe other chemicals that give you a fever and make it hard to breathe, not necessarily the virus itself, right?
Homeopathy, pffft! Wake up, sheeple! Everyone knows 5G towers cause COVID, and what neutralizes the effects of 5G? Shungite, a mineral the woo-woos have latched onto as a magical remedy for all that ails you. Wear a little nugget of shungite around your neck, and you’re protected from all those nasty 5G death rays. Worried about your baby? Hang a small piece of nugget in the nursery, and your baby is protected, too! Don’t support Bill Gates and his microchip vaccines scheme to take over the world! Help the RIGHT people get filthy rich! Buy shungite today!
“Nosodes” are “homeopathic vaccines”.
Known as nosodes, these alternatives are diluted bacteria or viruses from infected human tissue that contains these organisms. Nosodes may be formulated by taking pus or feces from people suffering diseases such as tuberculosis or anthrax, then sterilizing and repeatedly diluting it until very few or no microbes remain. Nosodes are typically sold as jars of small pellets.
Wait, so you’re not just being czarcastic?
Knope.
Leslie, is that you?
Homeotrumpathy:
But to hedge his bets, Whitney said he is also pushing the FDA to allow oleandrin to be sold off the shelf as a dietary supplement — a move that could be made immediately, Whitney has told administration officials.
Oy
Although, looking at wikipedia’s entry on oleander, it’s not quite as toxic as I originally thought.
