Supposedly if you put the virus in a microwave, it kills it in about 1 minute.
So what if we had Ford convert the ventilators they are making (which we don’t need anymore) into human sized microwaves, that a person could fit into? A person, you know, could just get into int, hit the auto 1 minute button, and cure themselves of the virus.
I mean, what harm could it do? Let’s just do it, and see what happens.
Thats absurd. Everyone knows sitting outside in the sunlight is the best way to stop the virus.
This is a joke post, right? As far as I know, putting the virus into a microwave kills the same way it works with food- it heats it up (>80C to kill virus). If the virus is on the surface of a piece of glassware or in suspension in some water, this is fine, but in a human…? I think you would have to basically slow cook them to get rid of the virus in their interiors.
Though I hear “long pig” is quite tasty…
There are experiments with finding a resonant frequency that causes disruption of the virus shell without significant heating, but that would still only work on exposed surfaces, and the human body is a great absorber of microwave radiation across a broad spectrum, which would lead to either ineffectiveness in reaching the interior or more slow cooking for attempts with this effect.
Op, are you just trying to see if Trump will repeat this?
Or just try setting yourself on fire.
The disease mostly spreads through air.
No air, almost no spread.
So we just need a very large vacuum chamber to shove everyone in the planet into for a few hours…
Wheee!
I think we should get the medical community to look into this as well. 
Small things, especially non-polarized molecules, don’t get heated by microwaves much. If you try to nuke an insect it will probably just crawl around annoyingly inside your microwave.
What kills viruses in a microwave is heating something else that then heats the virus through conduction. If the virus is on an ice cube, heating it for a minute probably isn’t going to do much. On the other hand, if the virus is in a small amount of water, you can easily get the water to a temperature that will kill the virus.
As for humans, I’m not sure what to make of the OP (joke post? vast misunderstanding of microwaves?), so you get the full-on graphic description. The eyes, being delicate and not protected by thick skin, will go first. Blindness will be quick, followed by the fluid in the eyes boiling and popping the eyeballs open.
As for the rest of the body, it will be cooked like any other piece of meat in a microwave. It will cook from the inside out, from the outside in, which is a bit confusing, so let me explain. Microwaves don’t heat from the outside in like an oven does. Microwaves are radio waves that penetrate into the body and excite polarized molecules (water, fat, sugar, etc), generating heat. So the heat is generated inside the skin and tissues. That’s the inside out part. But microwaves will only penetrate so far, so the parts of the body that are more internal won’t be heated as much by the microwaves. Instead, the skin and outer layer of muscles will be heated first, and the heat will pass through conduction into the inside of the body. The person will die long before their internal organs heat up.
If you leave the body in there long enough, eventually heat from conduction will reach the inside of the body, so eventually you’ll kill all of the virus that is internal to the body as well, but it’s going to take a lot longer than a minute.
One minute is only going to result in blindness, sterilization (if male), and severe and probably fatal burns all over the skin and outer muscle tissue. The person will die, eventually, just from the severe burns and damaged skin, but the death will be the result of tissue damage, and will take many days. It won’t be an immediate death from the microwaves.
I’m a little hesitant to call that a cure.
Microwaves can cause testicular cancer, too.

But didn’t a woman once put a cat in a microwave to dry it off after a bath, or was that just a movie?
It could be done without harming the cat. Seriously. I don’t know about new research since 2001, but microwaves at the right field strength are harmless to animals, including people.
A CONVERSATION WITH: ELEANOR R. ADAIR; Tuning In to the Microwave Frequency
There’s always the other side of the bizarro coin though. Some people think 5G microwaves are causing COVID-19. So I don’t know if microwaves will cure it unless it works like getting hit on the head. An even number of hits and you’re fine, an odd number will leave you with amnesia.
Just found this, but it’s not the woman I was thinking about.
This guy is all over the internet, and not in a good way.
I was being sarcastic about the microwave thing, but I think that whole vacuum chamber idea has got legs.
Although they have suspended it for the duration, the Bureau of Printing and Engraving has an office to recover mutilated cash. He should be able to salvage much of it.
You guys are being ridiculous. The biggest problem we have is that it’s next to impossible to fight an enemy you can’t see. We need to make the virus visible. I think a continuous spray of purple ink into the air of all public spaces should help immensely.
When will our national leaders show their faith in “cures” by publicly trying some?
Build a man a fire, and he’ll be warm for a night. Set a man on fire, and he’ll be warm for the rest of his life.
We could all drink PepsoCola company’s new beverage COVID 19 disinfecting soda-pop.
I task Coca-Cola company to come up with their version: Corona Cola!
(Oops there’s already a Corona beer, dang it)
We’ll all be cured and immune.
I swear.
It might work.
