Just want to put the truth out there - which many people don't like.

If you take things in their proper context, you need to watch Bill Bryan. He is the Science and Technology Director for Homeland Security. Below is the video for the entire press conference. Skip ahead to minute 19 of the video when he speaks and watch the entire 7-8 minutes in its context.

What you will hear about are the various tests that they are conducting regarding the coronavirus. Sunlight and UV light have the best direct effect on the virus.

You will also hear – FROM HIM – that they are testing disinfectants that are readily available, which included bleach and isopropyl alcohol.

Trump comes to the podium afterwards and is commenting on what Mr. Bryan had presented, in which he mentioned disinfectants – which is what everyone is talking about. There's also a short section around the 49 minute mark when a reporter asked him about it.



I just think it's disgusting to purposely skew what's true for political purposes when we should be using all of our efforts to nullify the effects of the virus.

We have to understand that Trump can do no right for some people. If he doesn't heed the scientists - he's terrible. Here, he listens to what the scientists are saying and makes comments - and he is taken out of context, and he is terrible.

Of course he did, just before Trump spoke. What's funny is it was difficult to find video of just Bill Bryan's comments when I searched a few days ago. I noticed that videos just started popping up 2-3 days ago, more results when his name is misspelled (Bryant) vs the correct spelling.

I too wonder how much time, energy and effort has been collectively wasted trying to tear down this president, vs actually doing something to fight the virus or help our nation get over it.

Bill Bryan specifically referred to "non-porous surfaces". There was not one moment where he suggested that disinfectants could be used inside a person's body.

Go to 24:30 of the video were bleach and alcohol are mentioned. He talked about effects on saliva and respiratory fluids.

That's why I said you need to watch his entire presentation.

The truth is also a disinfectant.

Do you see how it worked in thwarting you from making any false comments and suppositions?

Ok, I fail to realize how conducting tests on saliva and respiratory fluids with disinfectants is tantamount to injecting disinfectants in your body. The reason they would conduct the ability of the disinfectants to kill COVID19 on saliva and respiratory fluids is because that is a major path for transmission. If someone coughs into their hand and touches a door knob, the COVID19 virus can then be transmitted through that door knob. This wouldn't lead to them suggesting that you should inject yourself with disinfectants.

And. yet here you are running defense for the president. I wonder how much time is spent by supporters running defense for the president and going out there and protesting in large crowds vs actually doing something to fight the virus or help our nation get over it.

Don't you think it is important that people know that this is not something that should be taken seriously, just like when the president suggested using hydroxychloroquine and people ended up dying from taking that advice. I do admit that people lay on heavy, but it should be known that what he is suggesting has no backing and that people should not take any sort of medical advice from him. Neither should he be suggesting anything regarding medical advice on live television. That isn't his specialty and we already have the greatest minds in the medical field working on solutions, these suggestions by him have added nothing and only add to more confusion.
