CORONAVIRUS: INJECTING DISINFECTANT NOT RIGHT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
ICHEOKU says the president has gotten away with so many things over the years, but the suggestion or insinuation that disinfectants could be introduced internally into the body to cure coronavirus is to say the least ignorant and a lack of basic knowledge about toxicity. Anyone with even a rudimentary knowledge of biology, knows that human organs are so fragile that acidic compounds easily corrode them, resulting in death by poisoning. It is the same result whether you inject or ingest them as with those who drink chemicals including Sniper rat poison.
ICHEOKU says there is nothing to defend the president in this circumstances and the fact that he tried to explain it away as a sarcastic comment made the matter worse, because the seriousness of the coronavirus and the untoward loss of human lives and destruction to economy it has caused does not warrant any humor about the disease or its cure, especially not at this time. It is okay if the president misspoke in which case a withdrawal of statement will be in order; but to try to parry it away as a sarcastic comment is a diminishment on the part of the president and also an insult on the intelligence of the rest of society who watched the president say what he said. It was clear and bereft of any interpretation or subliminal innuendo that the president seriously put the suggestion out as something worth looking into.
ICHEOKU says has been recommending for some time now that the president remove himself from the daily briefings and allow the man he appointed chairman of the Taskforce on coronavirus, his Vice President Michael Pence and his team to do the job. What is the point of putting them in charge of the coronavirus effort when the president still micromanages them and wants to always be the one staging the show, when he is not involved in the day to day detailed work which the task force is doing. If the president does not want the task force to continue to function, he should disband them and absorb their duties; but it is inconceivable that he out-stages them in the manner he does.
Also, the fact that many people love and listen to the president should make it imperative that he first checks his utterances and recommendations very well with the experts to avoid unintended consequences. What if some people have already injected lysol or bleach after hearing the president utter those words. Tweets are different from statements made on the pulpit of the presidency, which are weightier and the president should be guided with much level of seriousness when so situated. It becomes more problematic at the same time he is excoriating the World Health Organization for their wrong information to the world about the coronavirus, yet he was similarly giving wrong information about cure for the coronavirus himself.
What the president said exposed him to unimaginable ridicule and goes on to buttress what his detractors has been saying that the president is empty and does not know much. Why give his enemies a loaded gun one would ask by saying such idiotic thing that somewhat adds credence to what they have been saying that what a basic knowledge would have imbibed the president is lacking. It was a jaw dropping pitiful moment watching the president say that and this should be time for the president to lay low and let the experts deal with the science behind the coronavirus. He can always periodically make appearances, may be once a week to take some political questions, but always defer the science and medical questions, especially the trap questions, to the medical people in the task force.
Enough of this shooting on the foot which the president often does to himself, creating too much jobs for his handlers deal with in cleaning up afterwards. Many of the presidents supporters including ICHEOKU are not happy when the president makes such otherwise avoidable faux pas, especially in an election year, thus providing the Democratic Party with a lot of ammunition for their campaign videos. There are a lot of things being a wise guy bequeaths on somebody, but ingesting or injecting a corrosive disinfectant into the body is definitely not one of them. It is shameful that the president even entertained such thought in the first place and very embarrassing he uttered it out publicly. Please Mr President, kindly take a backseat on the daily briefings and let Mike Pence do his job alongside the experts in the coronavirus task force.
