*Only underwater* would have been the best answer designed to ensure there was a possibility of getting someone competent in charge.
If they’d combined this with drinking bleach you’d have a superhero origin story
I don’t know if this is better or worse than light inside the body 🤣
I’d love to know if senior party leadership received any ‘crash course’ biology/virology/immunology lessons at the start of the pandemic. I think it’s right the PM *should* be allowed to ask ANY question, even stupid ones – but there should be enough people around him that will honestly tell him the answer without fear.
It’s very much like Trump wondering if you inject bleech will it kill COVID. I mean.. yes. But also – no.
At least he asked in private, rather than publicly, at a press conference.
Words fucking fail me.
The scientist’s responses to embarrass this fool of a PM are endless… Don’t know how they resisted? I would have responded ” you’ll have to ask Elvis.. He lives on the moon these days”.
That’s one of the things scientists are there for yes.
Am sure that’s a question that couldn’t be answered with about 30 seconds of thought.
Reading the article the question doesn’t seem as idiotic as the headline implies. Considering heat kills viruses, that’s why we get a fever when ill, is it not worth asking if there is anything behind the idea?
> Boris Johnson asked scientists if people could kill Covid by blowing a hairdryer up their nose after he watched a YouTube video suggesting this.
>
> “A low point was when he circulated a video of a guy blowing a special hair dryer up his nose ‘to kill Covid’ and asked the CSA (Chief Scientific Adviser) and CMO (Chief Medical Officer) what they thought,” the former No10 adviser wrote.
That’s about as unexpected as the Bad Tory PM being replaced with the Bad Tory PM, who went on to be replaced by the Bad Tory PM.
I have no love for this guy, but this is the sort of thought that would probably come to my head and I’d feel compelled to explore the efficacy of it.
He probably thought, well I’m prime minister, I’ve got a bunch of scientists , why not
This is someone that was able to get to the highest position in the country. Hahaha we are so fucked.
In fairness, I have definitely come across this as advice for shortening a cold. I tried it and it certainly didn’t make things any worse.
Can the judge ask him to demonstrate this when he gives evidence? Without seeing it I don’t think we can come to any conclusions.
Did Boris ask the same scientists that told Donald trump that you can cure COVID by injecting yourself with bleach?
He really is ‘Britain Trump’ isn’t he?
By comparison, injecting yourself with bleach and shining UV light into a vein seem almost scientific.
At least he thoroughly demonstrated the same level of intellect, integrity and ethics, as those who voted him into power…
At least he didn’t tell us to drink bleach and inhale blue light to cure a virus that doesn’t exist…
Lmao I think this beats trump’s suggestion to drink bleach 😂
Maybe he should have tried it, show the cabinet what he means. I’d pay money to see the wanker shove a hairdryer up his nose and force his peanut sized brain out his ear.
Bloody tool.
I’d forgotten why reading the news during COVID times left me feeling so utterly lost and exhausted and now I remember it’s because we were being run by dimwits who seem incapable of basic critical thinking let alone deal with nationwide issues.
And I realise we still have these dimwits in power but I guess the lack of daily briefings on their recent idiotic idea has helped me remain distracted.
Okay /u/Mr_XcX please try to defend this. Holy moly.
PM should have a science, engineering or medical degree. I’ve had enough of these classics knuckle daggers.
