Hey, brainstorming is admirable, just not something you should be doing as the leader of the free world on live television when people are desperate and looking for answers. Maybe there is a compound that could be applied to the lungs periodically to reduce viral load or clear the airways. Just pretty sure it's not bleach!
In the other direction, it kind of bums me out when people suggest taking vitamin D or Zinc or other traditional cold remedies and CDC/people just blurt "there is no proven cure for Covid-19!" Just because it's not proven doesn't mean it's not worth trying (if it's already been used safely for decades for other things). We need to be working together and trying everything we can at this point to find some kind of a solution before we come out of our lock-downs with nothing but a few months delay.
