Last August the agency issued a strong health warning that MMS bleach products could be life-threatening.

Since the start of the pandemic, the FDA has been trying to clamp down on fraudulent dealers of quack remedies claiming to protect against the virus. They also market it untruthfully as a cure for the condition autism. Proponents of MMS falsely claim that it is a cure-all for almost all diseases, including malaria, HIV/Aids, cancer and now Covid-19. In small doses it can be used to disinfect water, but the concentrations being advocated by pushers of MMS – “miracle mineral solution” – are well above safety levels. The bleach that is being sold on the Amazon marketplace is typically used in industrial processes including textile manufacturing and bleaching of pulp and paper.

“Many people still don’t believe in it, but I am sure that it has helped us a lot,” he said.Īnother Amazon customer wrote: “My mom who is 77 got Corona, Covid, and had a whole body-ache stomach upset, very extreme headache, fatigue … Well, she started taking MMS and NOT KIDDING you, she was practically half better the NEXT day and the day after she was totally good!!” One purchaser, writing in Spanish, said his family had started taking bleach soon after the coronavirus pandemic hit the US. Users discuss how many drops of bleach they are imbibing and explain they are drinking the chemical which they call MMS to “disinfect ourselves”, a phrase that echoes Donald Trump’s controversial remarks in April that injections of disinfectant could cure Covid-19. Third-party sellers signal the bleach as a “water treatment” and include legal disclaimers that the liquid is “not marketed for internal use”.īut comments from Amazon customers under the review section of the pages tell a different story. The chlorine dioxide solutions are being sold on the Amazon platform under the brand name CD Kit and NatriChlor.
