    Florida politician says coronavirus cured by blowing hairdryer up nose

    https://nypost.com/2020/03/23/florid...dryer-up-nose/

    A local Florida politician has apologized for telling a public meeting that blowing a hairdryer up your nose can cure the coronavirus.

    Okeechobee County Commissioner Bryant Culpepper bragged about his background as a paramedic as he hailed the madcap cure that he saw one of the foremost doctors who has studied the coronavirus reveal on cable TV.

    This sounds really goofy and it did to me too but it works, he told Friday?s meeting of his commission, as caught on video.

    The answer was you use a blow dryer. You hold a blow dryer up to your face and you inhale with your nose and it kills all the viruses in your nose, he insisted.

    ?Sometimes the cures for some of these diseases are very simple.

    His widely debunked claims were met with silence, before an awkward OK and another member of the commission warned against misinformation over the potentially deadly virus.

    It was met with a far more hostile audience online, however, with the commissioner getting called dangerously ignorant, a special kind of stupid and even dumb as a f?ing rock on his own Facebook page.

    Misinformation is deadlier than the actual virus, one critic, Tony Trotter, warned him on Facebook.

    Culpepper on Sunday offered a heartfelt sorry for angry exchanges he had with critics online as well as the embarrassment I caused to my Fellow Commissioners and staff.

    I will not offer any more suggestions unless they are tried and proven, he vowed, asking for forgiveness for anything offensive that I uttered.

    You are talking to a woman who has laughed in the face of death, sneered at doom and chuckled at catastrophe.

    I want to see a bunch of people posting videos of themselves doing this. Not because I think it works, but because I could use a few laughs these days.
