After the president's suggestion that ingesting cleaning products or classic xxx movies - watch full movies for freeapplying a "very powerful light" to the body to kill the coronavirus, Lysol, the Centers for Disease Control, lawmakers, doctors, and Twitter users warned people notto do so.

"I see the disinfectant where it knocks [the coronavirus] out in a minute, one minute," Trump said during the daily White House coronavirus briefing on Thursday. "And is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside, or almost a cleaning? Because you see it gets in the lungs, and it does a tremendous number on the lungs. So it'd be interesting to check that."

No, it wouldn't. And by Friday, Lysol, the CDC, and others stepped in to emphasize that you should not drink or inject disinfectant.

And doctors also took to Twitter to issue medical advice.
