The Light the Media Mocked Trump Over Could Be Used to Disinfect Airplanes

The Light the Media Mocked Trump Over Could Be Used to Disinfect Airplanes

Ultraviolet light is currently being used to clean medical instruments and lab paraphernalia and, as President Trump mentioned last week, researchers are looking into using that part of the light spectrum to kill the coronavirus inside the body.
Naturally, in their zeal to purposely misunderstand and misinterpret the president, they began, like the flying monkeys they are, to represent that the president claimed people should drink bleach and put lightbulbs in their human orifices. He said nothing of the kind, of course.
As my PJ Media colleague Tyler O’Neil pointed out, left-wing politicos and their transcriptionists in the media unthinkingly mocked Trump over the notion that light could possibly be used in any capacity to kill the virus and, yes, disinfect, the body.
Like this.
This self-described professor of chemistry knew nothing of the light technology and why would he? That’s the physics department, right? I wonder if he knows anyone over in that department?
If bathing yourself in brief periods of powerful UV light kills Coronavirus, then Trump must be fuc—ng invincible.
This Trump-hating doctor missed the memo too. But we can’t fault a doctor, who purports to treat people, for failing to do his homework. Hope his patients don’t find out.
So PRESIDENT TRUMP has said that ‘introducing’ UV light & bleach into the body could help treat #coronavirus.
THERE IS NO EVIDENCE FOR THIS WHATSOEVER.
PLEASE DON’T DO THIS – IT MIGHT KILL YOU.
America, I feel so sorry for you all. This man is an irresponsible idiot.
They were wrong, as usual.
Scientists at Cedars-Sinai are developing an ultraviolet light that is inserted into the lungs of coronavirus patients to kill the virus living there.
Trump was right again about “inserting UV light.”
It’s called the #Healight
Watch
Here’s another example of how wrong the media were.
“President Trump has been mocked relentlessly for suggesting that ultraviolet light could be brought “inside the body” to kill the coronavirus, but there is ongoing research to do just that.” –
That Trump might be proved right was too much for the media, whose Left-wing allies at the Silicon Valley social media platforms got the “HeaLight” company taken off social media “for violating community standards,” as my colleague Matt Margolis pointed out.
It was only later restored when the biotech company was found not to be engaging Google’s definition of quackery. Phew. Glad to know Google’s in charge of medicine for the entire universe. What a relief.
Satire aside, it must be particularly galling to these “reporters” that the 73-year-old president they think is a stuffed-shirt-know-nothing-blowhard has far more intellectual curiosity and zeal to learn about new things than these potted plants.
Well, back to the science.
UV technology is being considered further for use in meatpacking plants that have been in the spotlight lately due to outbreaks of coronavirus. Some places have used this technology since the fast-food outbreaks of E. coli O157:H7 back in the early1990s. Makes you wonder how the reporters missed that. That disease killed a bunch of kids, including a friend of mine’s daughter.
The company my husband works for makes components for UV lighting rooms that medical facilities use to disinfect – there’s that word again – large pieces of equipment, such as wheelchairs. It already works for small instruments.
Now comes word that the airline industry could also use a UV light device to disinfect – there’s that word again – the interiors of airplanes to kill the virus.
Reuters inconveniently reports that this doohickey that looks like a food cart can shine its UV-C light on the seats and kill the coronavirus.
In the March issue of the Institute Electrical and Electronics magazine, “Spectrum,” the inventors of the GermFalcon, Dr. Arthur Kreitenberg and his son Elliot, explained the device.
GermFalcon uses a set of mercury lamps to bathe the airline cabin, bathrooms, and galley in ultraviolet-C light. Unlike UV-A and UV-B, that 200 to 280 nanometer wavelength doesn’t reach the surface of the Earth from the sun, because it’s strongly absorbed by nitrogen in the air. And that’s a good thing, because it’s like kryptonite to DNA. Using 100-amps from a lithium-iron-phosphate battery pack, GermFalcon’s mercury lamps’ output is so strong that the company claims the system can wipe out flu viruses from an entire narrow-body plane in about three minutes: one pass up the aisle, one pass down the aisle, and a minute for the bathrooms and galley.
Now that we’ve established that the media and their allies are ready to censor things that they don’t consider scientific facts, you might want to check out the “Germfalcon” before – and its a very real possibility – YouTube’s parent company, Google, scrubs the site.

The Atlantic Mocks Georgia Governor Reopening State: An ‘Experiment In Human Sacrifice’

The Atlantic Mocks Georgia Governor Reopening State: An ‘Experiment In Human Sacrifice’

Georgia Governor Brian Kemp speaks to the media during a press conference at the Georgia State Capitol on April 27, 2020 in Atlanta, Georgia.

Georgia Governor Brian Kemp speaks to the media during a press conference at the 
On Wednesday, The Atlantic published a piece with as insulting a title as can be imagined toward the state government of Georgia, called, “Georgia’s Experiment in Human Sacrifice.” The subtitle read,“The state is about to find out how many people need to lose their lives to shore up the economy.”

Amanda Mull of The Atlantic calls Georgia governor Brian Kemp’s decision to reopen the state last week a “U-turn” that “has left Georgians scrambling.” She follows with this pronouncement: “Kemp’s order shocked people across the country … Kemp’s move to reopen was condemned by scientists, high-ranking Republicans from his own state, and Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms;  it even drew a public rebuke from President Donald Trump, who had reportedly approved the measures before distancing himself from the governor amid the backlash.”

Then Mull segues to her central thesis: “Public-health officials broadly agree that reopening businesses—especially those that require close physical contact—in places where the virus has already spread will kill people.” After admitting that many other states are quietly considering similar moves to Georgia’s,” the Atlantic accuses Kemp of “acting with particular haste.”

Mull writes of the “dozen local leaders, business owners, and workers” to whom she spoke that they are in a “struggle between a state government and ordinary people” before plunging to describing Georgia’s “brash reopening” as “a morbid experiment in just how far states can push their people. Georgians are now the largely unwilling canaries in an invisible coal mine, sent to find out just how many individuals need to lose their job or their life for a state to work through a plague.”

Mull quotes Harry Heiman, a public-health professor at Georgia State University, slamming the state government as he stated, “They’ve long prioritized policies that they believe support businesses, even though those same policies might not be good for workers or for the communities that those workers come from.” Heiman postulated a racial aspect to the reopening of the state: “We’re opening up businesses that are not only high-touch and requiring proximity, but we’re also choosing industries where racial- and ethnic-minority communities are disproportionately represented.”

Mull breathes, “All Georgians can do now is try to protect themselves as best they can. If social distancing decreases because lots of businesses reopen, another deluge of COVID-19 cases could be inevitable. Because of how infections tend to progress, it may be two or three weeks before hospitals see a new wave of people whose lungs look like they’re studded with ground glass in X-rays. By then, there’s no telling how many more people could be carrying the disease into nail salons or tattoo parlors, going about their daily lives because they were told they could do so safely.”

After Kemp announced the reopening of Georgia on April 20, he appeared on Fox News, where he explained:

I announced this on Monday so we can have time to educate the public and the business owners that this is just not handing them the keys back to go back to where we were. This is a measured approach with a lot of different requirements and guidance that we’re going to be putting out. And I’m very confident of that step. It was done in conjunction with public health officials based on the data that we’re seeing in our state and the gateways to the phase one part of the president’s plan.”

Kemp continued:

I spent all weekend working with Dr. Toomey, who’s a … great epidemiologist, a great public health official, one of the best I think in the country. I did not make this decision without her support. We pored over this data. We’re looking at all kind of different models. I’ve had hospital CEOs that I’ve been … in contact with that reached their peak way back on April the 6th. … They support a measured opening which is what we are doing. It’s going to be very limited in scope, basic operations. We’re talking about a few businesses that I closed down to help flatten the curve which we have done in our state.

But for us to continue to ask them to do that while they lose everything, quite honestly, there are a lot of civil repercussions of that, mental health issues. We’re seeing more patients in our trauma centers in our state because people are just you know, they’re tired of it.

EPA Administrator Says WaPo Lied About Their Disinfectant Warnings

EPA Administrator Says WaPo Lied About Their Disinfectant Warnings


The EPA Administrator, Andrew Wheeler, joined Tony Katz. The EPA has been active in addressing fraudulent COVID-19 disinfectants. The EPA is working directly with online retailers to remove inaccurate claims on products that claim to be effective against COVID-19.
“What we have done is approve products for use against coronavirus. As of today, we have approved almost 400 products that our listed on our website… Make sure the products you are purchasing are actually effective against the virus.”
Last week, the President had mentioned ultraviolent lights and disinfectants during the coronavirus press conference. The media came out with the story that the President encouraged people to inject bleach, which, of course, is not true.
Wheeler made mention of this, claiming that a Washington Post reporter called, refused to accept his answer and pushed the lie about President Trump anyway:
EPA ADMINISTRATOR ANDREW WHEELER: We put that warning (about not ingesting products) on all of our list of disinfectants. Anything we approve, we always have that disclaimer, no matter what the product is.

And we’ve had that disclaimer on our disinfectants list before the coronavirus, but certainly we’ve highlighted it since March 6th. 

We release the new list of disinfectants, the new approvals, every Thursday. And we released the list last Thursday, a couple of hours before the President’s press conference. That disclaimer is always on our press release.

And we actually had [sic] Washington Post reporter called and said, “You put this on here because of the President’s press conference, didn’t you?” I said, “No. Actually, our press release went out a couple of hours before the press conference.

And then they ran a story over the weekend saying that EPA had to backtrack on the President’s statement, which is not the case at all.

But that just shows you how the media has their own, has an incredible bias. They just run with the story and they make facts up. We specifically told them no.
TONY KATZ: The Washington Post called you to confirm. You told them that’s not the way it happened, and they ran the story anyway?
WHEELER: Yes, absolutely.
