US again warns drinking bleach is not COVID-19 cure as poison rates jump

Executives at the Texas Poison Center are repeatedly advising Americans that drinking bleach and other disinfectants will not heal a person from coronavirus, media reported.
Poison rates have surged, the Center announced, with a 71 percent increase in cases comprising bleach products, and a 63 percent increase in cases involving household cleaning products, WFAA, a Dallas, Texas-based news organization reported.

“We certainly are not used to seeing bleach ingestion, at least that frequently in such a short amount of time, and we do know in general this year compared to last we’re seeing a whole lot more of bleach exposures,” Cristina Holloway, a public health education manager at the Texas Poison Center said, according to NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth, a US television news station.
