@contentandwell. I read that Chris Cuomo said he had chills so bad he chopped a tooth. His wife was taking chorox bath...1/2 cup of Chorox in her bath water, which I just cringed reading about it, she has used all kinds of unconventional methods like having billions of milligrams of vitamin drips by a doctor who made house calls, and some 'body charger' that sent electric currents through her body. Their children also are infected but I'm not following them.

@mayofeb2020 She took a Clorox bath? I am surprised, I would have thought them to be more conventional. Did Chris comment on that? I used to know a young woman (when I too was young) who put Clorox in her bathwater to lighten her skin. She was of Alaskan Indian heritage and wanted to be whiter! I did not hear of any harm she had from it but I would think that could get inside of you and that would not be good.
Hopefully their children are doing well. Chris really looked terrible when he was in the midst of battling it.

Yikes! I had not read that. It is fairly shocking. I hope she survives the treatment as well as the disease.

Q. Can I bath in bleach water?

A. Clorox® Regular Bleach2 is NOT recommended for personal hygiene of any kind–consumers should always avoid direct skin and eye contacts with both undiluted bleach, as well as prolonged contact with the various bleach solutions we recommend for household cleaning and laundry. Perhaps you are familiar with the instructions for using bleach for emergency treatment of drinking water. That’s an entirely different situation. For that, the bleach to water ratio is 1/8 teaspoon bleach per gallon of clear water, and the treated water has to stand for 30 minutes before drinking. During this time, the bleach kills any bacteria in the water before breaking down into salt and water. While this solution is safe to drink, using a bleach and water solution for bathing is not approved by the EPA and should not be done.
