And I think you said, that hasn’t been checked out, but you’re going to test it.’ The makers of disinfectants have warned against putting them in the human body ‘under any circumstance’ (Picture: Reuters) The president, who has no scientific qualifications, continued: ‘And then I said supposing you brought the light inside the body which you can do either through the skin or in some other way.
