🚨Taking some special oil and eating garlic or ginger kills the virus.

It is well known that some of these plants like ginger or garlic have great health benefits and therapeutic effects. But no research has shown that they are effective in curing coronavirus hence, it is not true.

Some of these plants are medicinal and when you take them too much they could become problem to you. Don't add excessive pepper, ginger or garlic in your food just because you want to kill coronavirus, it does not work

I once saw a video that went viral on WhatsApp. A woman claiming that some plants she conjured could cure Corona virus.

We fail to understand that many plants contains some dangerous phytochemical constituents like flavonoids, tannin, alkaloids, phenols, etc that could be potentially dangerous when they are taken in high amounts.

This is why it is not always advisable to pick up any plant and claim it is medicinal without proper research on its dosage.

🚨Most people don't recover from coronavirus.

I believe this is glaring and untrue as we seen and have recorded many cases of people that have fully recovered from covid-19 infection as a result of supportive care and treatment.

But this still does not mean we should not pay attention to prevention methods and hygiene practices. Eat healthy to keep the system strong and able to stand any opportunistic infection.

🚨Drinking alcohol prevents coronavirus

This is so so so not true and it totally false. Alcohol does not many will prevent you from the virus nor does it cure the virus. You can be intoxicated with alcohol and this will ultimately damage liver cells.

Remember excessive intake of alcohol causes accumulation of toxic metabolites in the body system. It increases acetaldehyde accumulation that leads to the hangover and headache you experience after excessive consumption.

🚨Covid-19 transmitted through flies

Till date, there is no known fly as vector for the transmission of this virus to humans. Be it mosquito, housefly, tse tse fly, there is no documented facts to prove that flies could transmit Corona virus. Don't be scared for nothing.

I only wonder what would have been our faith if mosquitoes could transmit this virus. I leave you to ponder on that.

🚨5G network transmit Covid-19

Lol... This is just so laughable the first day I heard it. What has coronavirus in biological organism got to do with a network. There is no correlation at all. Coronavirus cannot be transmitted through 5G network. In fact, there is no known virus that travels through radio waves signals.

🚨Face masks and carbondioxide intoxication

Face mask is intended to be worn mostly by healthcare workers. It is only expected to be used when necessary. Face mask when used properly will not cause carbon dioxide location as long as it is well fitted and appropriately worn in such a way that it allows you to breathe properly.

This is quite different from when worn in such a way that you are unable to breathe properly for a very long time. Please get the difference. As much as possible use face mask only when necessary.

🚨No more reinfection after recovering from previous infection

This is not true. You can be reinfected by the virus if you do not heed to proper hygiene practice and prevention methods.

🚨Do recovered people pose threat

Those who have recovered from the coronavirus infection do not post any threat to society. Let us stop the stigmatization and always remember that coronavirus infection is not a death sentence.
