It’s hard to believe people are dumb enough to ingest a chemical that sounds similar to what may work for treating tecate virus and comes in a bottle that probably states it’s recommended use is cleaning fish tanks.
It is the same chemical as what was used in China. However, the recommended dosage is 500mg. Good luck measuring 500mg a dose without knowing what you are doing.
