Thought this kinda cool to post as I was reading about it.. We all know bleach kills germs and disinfects but how does it happen molecularly??

Molecular Biologists at University of Michigan studying this found that a component of bleach known as 'Hypoclorous Acid' unravels the bactera's protein chains which then clump into a useless mess and hence no bacteria. I wonder if this is how MMS works,it uses the same basic bleach agent to kill bad stuff in your system.....

Tell it to Mr Trump, he needs no convincing that bleach is the stuff to inject. Hasn't tried it himself though....

An urban myth. What he actually said was a question, not advice.

... I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection ....

Re: How bleach kills germs

What Trump was doing was trying to direct an expert how to research in their particular field. It’s fairly typical narcissistic behaviour. Such people assume they have something useful to contribute in any field. If he was leading North Korea, the experts would all be furiously writing everything down so as not to offend him.
