Xenex's CEO was referring to the sterilization of medical equipment and surfaces; not actively sterilizing viruses in a person's body like Trump was suggesting. Two different conversations here.

OTH, perhaps Pres Trump has been briefed on emerging technology that you hating libs haven't: Fancy that.

Time for the truth again, the REST OF THE STORY- which would set you free if you just took some time before complaining.

Mar 25, 2020 · Scientists have known for decades that broad-spectrum UVC light, which has a wavelength of between 200 to 400 nanometers (nm), is highly effective at killing bacteria and viruses …

This was literally in the paragraph above the one you posted:

"The findings from the new study—published today in Scientific Reports in an article entitled “Far-UVC Light: A New Tool to Control the Spread of Airborne-Mediated Microbial Diseases”—suggests that use of overhead far-UVC light in hospitals, doctors’ offices, schools, airports, airplanes, and other public spaces could provide a powerful check on seasonal influenza epidemics, as well as influenza pandemics."

Notice anything in common between the things I highlighted? Those are all public places/external surfaces. They are not the inside of the human body, as Trump was referring to. Apparently us "hating libs" also know how to read, which is something you failed to do. Fancy that, indeed.

Have fun continuing to slip on your own banana peels, and back on ignore you go.

Except that UV light can be injected into the body through a catheter.

And if Obama or any democrat had said what Trump had, the Obama lemmings would have laughed it off,  dismissed as "innocent ignorance" and moved on.

As they should have.

As they should have in Trumps case.

Agree?

you don't have a point here. If the light is safe for humans, then light can be shined on humans, STUPID.

stop trying in vain to be a smart ass, STFU for a minute, and consider the possibilities:

" “Far-UVC light has a very limited range and cannot penetrate through the outer dead-cell layer of human skin or the tear layer in the eye, so it’s not a human health hazard,” Dr. Brenner noted. “But because viruses and bacteria are much smaller than human cells, far-UVC light can reach their DNA and kill them.”

Suppose blood could be diverted through a clear tube that had that light penetrate it? wouldn't it kill off the virus?  That is what I was thinking. Maybe not. It's possible?

  Ever hear of fiber optics, asswhole? maybe that could be inserted into a vein and the light could kill the virus etc in the blood?

I don't know, and you don't either, smart mouth. 

As usual, you cowardly take something completely out of context, jump on it, and try to look all powerful on the board, like the kim jong-un of the forum. My point stands, and I'm happy to have you put me on ignore.

Agree?

For sure, some people have overreacted to his statements. However, I think we can also agree that being the President puts extra gravitas on what he says over the common Joe Schmoe, especially during a pandemic.

So, perhaps we can also agree that Trump should check some of his ego at the door and not shoot off at the hip about things he knows little to nothing about and let his medical experts do their job, no?

Also, if roles were reversed and Obama phrased it just like Trump did, conservatives and those on the far right would be losing their collective shit just like leftists and never Trumpers are now, just because it was Obama that said it.

25) "No, no. I have been practicing...I bowled a 129. It's like -- it was like Special Olympics, or something." -- Barack Obama

 

 

24) "I have become a symbol of the possibility of America returning to our best traditions." -- Barack Obama

 

23) "I do think at a certain point you've made enough money." -- Barack Obama

 

22) "To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists and punk-rock performance poets. We smoked cigarettes and wore leather jackets. At night, in the dorms, we discussed neocolonialism, Franz Fanon, Eurocentrism, and patriarchy. When we ground out our cigarettes in the hallway carpet or set our stereos so loud that the walls began to shake, we were resisting bourgeois society's stifling conventions. We weren't indifferent or careless or insecure. We were alienated.

But this strategy alone couldn't provide the distance I wanted, from Joyce or my past. After all, there were thousands of so-called campus radicals, most of them white and tenured and happily tolerant. No, it remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names." -- Barack Obama

21) "I believe in keeping guns out of our inner cities, and that our leaders must say so in the face of the gun manfuacturer’s lobby." -- Barack Obama

 

20) "Junkie. Pothead. That's where I'd been headed: the final, fatal role of the young would-be black man. Except the highs hadn't been about that, me trying to prove what a down brother I was. Not by then, anyway. I got high for just the opposite effect, something that could push questions of who I was out of my mind, something that could flatten out the landscape of my heart, blur the edges of my memory. I had discovered that it didn't make any difference whether you smoked reefer in the white classmate's sparkling new van, or in the dorm room of some brother you'd met down at the gym, or on the beach with a couple of Hawaiian kids who had dropped out of school and now spent most of their time looking for an excuse to brawl. ...You might just be bored, or alone. Everybody was welcome into the club of disaffection." -- Barack Obama

 

19) "...I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal; this was the moment when we ended a war and secured our nation and restored our image as the last, best hope on earth. This was the moment -- this was the time -- when we came together to remake this great nation so that it may always reflect our very best selves and our highest ideals." -- Barack Obama

 

 

18) "We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times ... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK. That's not leadership. That's not going to happen." -- Barack Obama

 

17) "I am not in favor of concealed weapons. I think that creates a potential atmosphere where more innocent people could (get shot during) altercations." -- Barack Obama

 

16) "It’s very rare that I come to an event where I’m like the fifth- or sixth-most interesting person." -- Barack Obama

 

15) "The Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home. . . . What I think we know — separate and apart from this incident — is that there is a long history in their country of African-Americans and Latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately, and that’s just a fact." — President Obama on Gates’ arrest.

 

 

14) "But I don't want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking. I want them to get out of the way so we can clean up the mess. I don't mind cleaning up after them, but don't do a lot of talking." -- Barack Obama

 

13) "If Latinos sit out the election instead of saying, ‘We’re gonna punish our enemies and we’re gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us,’ if they don’t see that kind of upsurge in voting in this election, then I think it’s gonna be harder and that’s why I think it’s so important that people focus on voting on November 2." -- Barack Obama

 

12) "It was usually an effective tactic, another one of those tricks I had learned: (White) People were satisfied so long as you were courteous and smiled and made no sudden moves. They were more than satisfied, they were relieved -- such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn't seem angry all the time." -- Barack Obama

 

 

11) "The point I was making was not that Grandmother harbors any racial animosity. She doesn't. But she is a typical white person..." -- Barack Obama

 

10) "The issue here is not gonna be a list of accomplishments. As you said yourself, Steve, you know, I would put our legislative and foreign policy accomplishments in our first two years against any president — with the possible exceptions of Johnson, F.D.R., and Lincoln." -- Barack Obama

 

9) "I don’t believe it is possible to transcend race in this country. Race is a factor in this society. The legacy of Jim Crow and slavery has not gone away. It is not an accident that African-Americans experience high crime rates, are poor, and have less wealth. It is a direct result of our racial history." -- Barack Obama

 

😎 "The private sector is doing fine." -- Barack Obama

 

7) "That's just how white folks will do you. It wasn't merely the cruelty involved; I was learning that black people could be mean and then some. It was a particular brand of arrogance, an obtuseness in otherwise sane people that brought forth our bitter laughter. It was as if whites didn't know that they were being cruel in the first place. Or at least thought you deserving of their scorn." -- Barack Obama

 

6) "It is this world, a world where cruise ships throw away more food in a day than most residents of Port-au-Prince see in a year, where white folks' greed runs a world in need, apartheid in one hemisphere, apathy in another hemisphere...That's the world! On which hope sits!" -- Barack Obama quotes Rev. Wright

 

5) "You know, the truth is that right after 9/11, I had a (flag) pin. Shortly after 9/11, particularly because as we're talking about the Iraq war, that became a substitute for, I think, true patriotism, which is speaking out on issues that are of importance to our national security, I decided I won't wear that pin on my chest..." -- Barack Obama

 

4) "If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen." -- Barack Obama

 

3) "I can no more disown (Jeremiah Wright) than I can disown the black community. I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother - a woman who helped raise me, a woman who sacrificed again and again for me, a woman who loves me as much as she loves anything in this world, but a woman who once confessed her fear of black men who passed by her on the street, and who on more than one occasion has uttered racial or ethnic stereotypes that made me cringe." -- Barack Obama

 

2) "...I've got two daughters. 9 years old and 6 years old. I am going to teach them first of all about values and morals. But if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby." -- Barack Obama

 

1) "You got into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton Administration, and the Bush Administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. And it's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations." -- Barack Obama

Wheater a pandemic or not is irrelevant. Yes he's the President, and at times he can also be a Joe Shmo. That's been pretty much agreed upon by both sides.. So what you're saying is that there are many liberals stupid enough to try and drink or inject a disinfectant because they think that's what this Joe Shmo told them to do. OK you have a point there.

So, perhaps we can also agree that Trump should check some of his ego at the door and not shoot off at the hip about things he knows little to nothing about and let his medical experts do their job, no?

WTF?...now he's not letting the medical experts do their job? Please.

Also, if roles were reversed and Obama phrased it just like Trump did, conservatives and those on the far right would be losing their collective shit just like leftists and never Trumpers are now, just because it was Obama that said it.

I doubt it. We would laugh, ridicule the shit out of him just as we did over his 57 states comment. We would be smart enough to know that his disinfectant comment was just stupid and meaningless having no adverse consequences.

My concern here is less about how we as citizens react, but more on how this is projected and amplified in the MSM, on all networks, be it talk show political commentators to Hollywood to comedians trying to convince us that Trump told everyone to drink or inject this stuff....all in an effort from the day he was elected to destroy this man. Whereas these same factions circled the wagons around Obama. Conservatives never had that on their side. Remember that whoever controls the media controls the people.

You mean to tell me you can't see that???
