An intern of mine before is spreading this photo on FB. She seems so determined not to stop doing it. First and foremost, it was not proven yet. I told her that she needs to provide proofs about this claim. What makes you tick to madness? Are you going to be in silence seeing this kind of fake news?

Actually, I don't usually check the posted discussions. It happens that she sent it through my FB messenger. It surely captured my attention today.

If I see anyone trying to promote or forward false or hoax information like this, I search for the evidence of its falsity in Snopes or other sites which deal with Internet hoaxes and post the link in a comment asking my 'friend' to STOP promoting it and to repost the link on the place that they shared it from. There are SO many things wrong with this post which looks as though it was compiled by someone with some medical experience ("That's what we do at the Hospital"). First of all, it's NOT "the coronary virus" ... it has NOTHING to do with a heart condition (!). The list of pH values for various foods is also complete fiction (and most of the ones mentioned - specifically lemon, line and pineapple - are acid, in any case!). Nor is there any evidence that trying to increase the body's pH level has any effect whatsoever on the virus. A few of the suggestions are reasonable ways of helping the immune system and the body in general but the rest is dangerous nonsense which can lead to a false sense of security.

I do agree with you 100%. I am also in the medical field and practiced in years too. I called her attention because she's not thinking about this matter. It needs to be proved and worked with the research team. In the end, she agreed to delete it.

Some of the suggestions do help to strengthen our body immune system to fight the virus. What is wrong is to misrepresent it as a total cure or a total preventive and presented as a whole then it becomes fake news.

@Shavkat things like this should not be shared so as not to spread confusion and false information.

I hope she can understand what I am pointing to. Since she is also in the medical field, she needs to be careful. The good side is she admitsted that it's a wrong decision to post it.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Too bad there are a few jokers in the crowd.

I really cannot understand why some people cannot think straight now. I understand that they are affected by this coronavirus issue. But then, we need to think before posting things on social media. It could be misleading to others.

Well your first sentence , just two letters tells me all I need to know. "FB" the abbreviation for FaceBook. Right there tells me to just move on with my day. In my opinion and I have no data to back this up....50% of things posted on Facebook are made up things that people are trying to pass off as facts and truth the other 50% of things are just plain lies.

I agree that Facebook is loaded with fake news now. We really need to be vigilant and be careful too. I hope that people should take full responsibility of doing it.

@Shavkat Its sad that most of the people just don't care they just want people to react to their post whether it is true or not.

@Bensen32 I will not disagree with you on this. Some of these people are self-centered. I stay away from them as much as possible.

Its not as simple as mentioned in the paper. If it would like that then no need of special quarantine rooms. Corona, hope someone can come up with the real cure. Much needed.

Indeed, my friend. It is obvious that the information lacks proof. We really need the cure now.

Really, the only word that gives me a real problem is 'Goodbye'. Some of these things are good ideas healthwise but it isn't good to give people false hope.

That is also my concern. I sometimes felt that some people are doing things without being concerned with others. False hope is not a good thing.

I agree. We can still indulge ourselves to prevention. We just need a real cure for this killer virus.

It is quite convincing especially the background of the photo. It will surely capture the attention of readers. That's the reason why this person captured me.

It's up to your discretion, my friend. As for me, I think it is fine to do it. But it should not be claimed to cure the virus.

As I said before, today there is no a cure for the coronavirus yet. Such kind of rumors available everyday and now I ignore them. Just live like usual but no gathering is better. Of course you shall have a balanced diet so that your immune system will be stronger. This works better.

A lot of people are spreading rumors about the cure. But if scientists are having a hard time formulating it, it's not that easy.

I do not even read, trying to boost our immune system is a good thing, but this during all the year round, not only because of the virus.
