Accidental poisonings rose after Trump suggested injecting disinfectant could thwart coronavirusAccidental poisonings in the country from disinfectants and bleach increased in April, the month when President Trump mused that people might be able to fight the novel coronavirus by injecting themselves with disinfectant, new data show.
The American Association of Poison Control Centers reported a 121 percent increase in poisonings from disinfectants and a 77 percent spike in bleach poisonings in April, compared with the same month last year. The April 2020 data included the seven days that followed Trump’s false and dangerous comment about disinfectant, which he made April 23.
The percentage increase in poisonings in the first 10 days of May was lower. Reports of accidental poisonings from disinfectants increased 69 percent and reports of poisonings from bleach increased 51 percent over the same period in 2019.
The AAPCC did not draw conclusions about what may have caused the significant increase in poisonings in April. Time magazine conducted the first analysis of the statistics as they relate to Trump.
Additionally, poisonings from disinfectant and bleach were already increasing before the president’s remark. Disinfectant poisonings increased by 5 percent in January, 17 percent in February and 94 percent in March, compared with the same months last year. The rise in poisonings hit 121 percent in April and 69 percent in May.
Compared with the same months last year, bleach poisonings increased by 7 percent in January, 1 percent in February and 59 percent in March before reaching 77 percent in April and 51 percent in May.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention concluded that although it could not prove a causal relationship between increased poisonings and more frequent cleaning because of the coronavirus, the periods overlapped.
What trump verbally pondered was absolutely moronic, but these numbers are basic common sense. An increase in household supply and usage equals more accidents. In 20 years we'll be hearing stories of how thousands of people injected themselves with bleach because trump told them to do it, ever heard the one about Richard Gere and the gerbil or Rod Stewart getting his stomach pumped? If this had been attempted by anyone I am sure someone would have posted it here already.
Good retort but if people actually injected or drank disinfectant then I lean towards Trumps fault.0 -

I am sorry for posting something from everyone's favorite news source, but I feel messages like this don't get much attention with all of the pissing matches generally stealing the show. David Wooderson gets it.0

-republicans vilifying democrats for wanting to keep people safe
-republicans vilifying democrats for believing public health is priority number 1 and the economy is priority number 2
-republicans actually advocating for sacrificing the weak in order to open back up (that was one of the more disgusting things i've seen from either side, on any issue, in recent memory)
-republicans denying science, downplaying the severity, all because they have this strangely held belief that democrats actually want to destroy america (gee, where did they get that idea?).
people want to go back to work because that fucking orange buffoon is doing next to nothing to help anyone. he blames everyone when things go to shit, and tries to take credit for things when they go right, even when they don't go right and he just claims they are. it is incredible to me that people believe him.Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall0 -

Fascism: noun: (sometimes initial capital letter) a governmental system led by a dictator having complete power, forcibly suppressing opposition and criticism, regimenting all industry, commerce, etc., and emphasizing an aggressive nationalism and often racism.

Since we are wildly off topic, my final post on the matter is a great post from Ken White (aka Popehat) that is required reading for anyone seduced by the visceral rush of antifa or "nazi-punching." I clipped one of the more succinct points as a quick taste.

Of course, that in itself makes it a shocking move from Fox News. He doesn't even seem to want to own the libs. In any case, I generally appreciate his attempt to not vilify either side (though these sides do exist) because the moment he does, he's discredited by one side.I do think in many ways, this is a challenging issue with views I can respect (related to some of the what/when/how to move ahead, etc.). But, I can't "both sides" all of this. 40% of the country doesn't believe any expert, any scientist, or anyone else with credibility because they believe Trump, Hannity, et al. Just like they believe climate change can't be real because it was colder than average yesterday, they believe this whole thing is a hoax because nobody in their circle of family/friends has died. Oh, and they care about the feelings of a snowflake more than the actual good of the country.It's funny, though...while I don't agree with some of the rosier things McConaghay (sp??) said, I do agree that "Democrats don't want the economy to suffer and Republicans don't want people to die."
