Johns Hopkins: COVID Mortality Analyses

[Overnight]

Hydrogen peroxide is applied to cuts and abrasions to disinfect them. Bleach, not so much.

What is a public swimming pool disinfected with?

Why is it that swimming pools are not treated with diluted hydrogen peroxide, but bleach?

Seriously? If bleach was that bad, why do we do our laundry with it?

You're being ridiculous now.

You may want to take a class on what Bleach turns into when put into a swimming pool versus what it does when it enters the human body.

While you're at it...do the same for hydrogen peroxide.

Methanol isn't safe. There's plenty of ethanol in alcoholic drinks which also kills virus. Methanol though? Dunno of many wood alcohols safe for consumption. Maybe there's trace amounts depending on plant matter used.

Like most of chemistry, it's all about the volume. Ethanol in large quantities is also poisonous, killing thousands every year.
Every alcoholic drink sold in the store has some amount of methanol in it.

Methanol in most drinks doesn't do anything to CV because it's below 60% alcohol (120 proof in the American system), that number is minimally required to kill it. I believe 98%+ drinks sold worldwide are below that number as you cannot drink it straight without esophageal damage.

Swimming pools are typically cleaned with chlrorine. Bleach doesn't necessarily have to have chlorine from what I read.

There's a reason wealthy people don't use chlorine in personal pools. I stopped going to public pools because of it. The eye and skin irritation wasn't worth it.

And "everybody is doing it" is a poor excuse. DDT was sprayed on kids for lice...

My Mother died from Alzheimer's. It's the sixth leading cause of death in the US according to the CDC.

You don't die of Alzheimer’s as such, it probably was Covid if she had the symptoms of it. Flu and stroke, heart disease, maybe cancer the typical. If she did not he has an argument.

My aunt currently has it and I have worked with hospices for many years. The thing that kills is usually aspirational pneumonia, (flu caused pneumonia) etc. Possibly hypothermia as happened to a friend's father-in-law, he wandered out in his pyjamas. Not the degredation of the brain resulting in a failure of the autonomic nervous system so much.

Obviously it is the reason they were vulnerable. Death certs do list the underlying contributing conditions. Doctors / Coroners will note AD but they will specify the cause of death differently. Its is not a binary thing like the public (a fraction of anyway) seems to think.

Iodine works just as well. When swimmers were asked they preferred iodine to chlorine.

Many homeowners are switching from chlorine to hydrogen peroxide and UV for disinfecting their pools. Most commercial hot springs have been using the H2O2/UV combo to disinfect their water for quite a while. (mainly for smell and skin/eye irritation)
