COVID-19 Home Treatment By Health DG Dr. Noor Hisham?!

Did Malaysia Health Director-General Dr. Noor Hisham Abdullah share his home treatment advice for COVID-19?

Take a look at the viral message, and find out what the FACTS really are!

 

Claim : COVID-19 Home Treatment Advice By Dr. Noor Hisham!

This post, allegedly by Malaysia’s Director General of Health, Dr. Noor Hisham Abdullah, has gone viral on WhatsApp.

It’s really long, so skip to the next section for the FACTS…

FAMILY MOVEMENT CONTROL ORDER – PKPK

Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah

Covid Medical Kit Needed at home:

1. Paracetamol.
2. Betadine for mouthwash and gargling.
3. Vitamins C and D3.
4. B complex.
5. Steam + capsule for steam.
6. Oximeter.
7. Oxygen cylinder (for emergencies only).
8. Breathing Exercises.

 

Truth : Fake COVID-19 Home Treatment, Not By Dr. Noor Hisham!

This is yet another example of the many fake news circulating on WhatsApp, and here are the reasons why…

Fact #1 : It Was Not Written By Dr. Noor Hisham Abdullah

Dr. Noor Hisham Abdullah is considered to be the Malaysian equivalent of Dr. Anthony Fauci in the United States, which is why fake news creators love to attach his name to the fake news they create.

For Doubting Thomases who think they are smarter than everyone else, this was confirmed as fake news by the Malaysia Ministry of Health on 9 August 2021.

Fact #2 : Home COVID-19 Medical Kit Is Fake

The Malaysia Ministry of Health does not advocate the items in the fake home COVID-19 medical kit attributed to Dr. Noor Hisham Abdullah.

  • Paracetamol is useful for bringing down a fever, but does not work against COVID-19
  • Betadine mouthwash helps with bad breath, but is useless against COVID-19
  • Vitamins C, B complex and D3 have not been proven to work against COVID-19
  • Steam and capsule for steam are completely USELESS against COVID-19
  • Breathing exercises are completely useless against COVID-19

Do NOT rely on these useless “home remedies” from a random WhatsApp message to treat COVID-19.

Fact #3 : There Is No Such Thing As 3 Levels Of COVID-19

There is no such thing as three levels of COVID-19.

When you get infected by SARS-CoV-2 – the coronavirus that causes COVID-19, it immediately infects your cells to replicate.

The virus doesn’t stay in your nose for a short holiday, before taking a slow hike to your throat and then hitting your lungs. It’s a virus, not a tourist.

Fact #4 : SpO2 Levels Should Not Drop Below 90%

The normal oxygen saturation level, SpO2, as measured by a pulse oximeter, is between 95% and 100%.

If your SpO2 level drops below 90%, you need oxygen supplementation, because :

  • your brain gets affected when it falls below 80% to 85%, and
  • you become cyanotic (your skin turns bluish) when your SpO2 level drops below 67%.

You will be dead before your blood oxygen level reaches 43% – the point which the stupid viral message says you need an oxygen cylinder.

Fact #5 : Alternative Treatments Do NOT Work Against COVID-19

Hospitals do not provide alternative treatments for COVID-19 like Vitamin C or Vitamin C, eggs, sitting in the sun, and all the bullshit listed in the viral message.

Neither will they prescribe warm water with lemon to “get rid of the virus before it reaches your lungs”.

All those “alternative treatments” are made-up BULLSHIT, and do NOT work against COVID-19.

Please SHARE this fact check with your family and friends, so they won’t fall for this nonsensical advice!

Surviving COVID-19 Does Not Make You An Expert!

Surviving COVID-19 is something to cheer for, but it does not make you an expert on beating the coronavirus!

Find out why it is dangerous to listen to COVID-19 messiahs preaching fake cures!

 

Some People Think Surviving COVID-19 Makes Them Experts!

Surviving severe COVID-19 is a traumatising experience, and talking about it is often cathartic for these survivors.

However, some COVID-19 survivors have been using their “survivor status” to promote fake cures for COVID-19.

Most notably are a Dr. Kenny Yong, and a Lillian, whose voice messages about surviving COVID-19 have gone viral recently.

I will show you why they are NOT telling you the truth about surviving COVID-19!

 

Why Surviving COVID-19 Does Not Make You An Expert!

Surviving COVID-19 does not require special skills or abilities. Often, it is a combination of age, co-morbidities, access to medical assistance, and yes, luck.

Yet a special few believe that surviving COVID-19 gave them special insight into how to prevent and treat COVID-19.

This is dangerous, because the tips and cures they promote are often FALSE or MISLEADING.

If their health tips and cures worked, would they have ended up with severe COVID-19 requiring hospitalisation and resuscitation?

It is precisely because they FAILED to work, which is why they ended up with severe COVID-19!

Let’s take a look at two examples – Dr. Kenny Yong, and Lilian.

Dr. Kenny Yong

Dr. Kenny Yong’s call to fame is based on surviving Category 1, Category 4 or Category 5 COVID-19 (he cannot seem to decide which).

He called the doctors who treated him arrogant for not accepting his medical advice on how best to treat him and his mother for COVID-19.

Ironically, they both ended up in the hospital after he self-medicated them both with ivermectin and other alternative treatments like high-dose vitamins, ultraviolet blood irradiation and even ozone therapy… and FAILED!

Instead of seeking medical help as soon as things got worse, they only sought help more than a week later when they were both breathless.

In the end, his mother died of COVID-19, and Dr. Kenny Yong himself only survived after being resuscitated on four different occasions.

Dr. Kenny Yong and Dr. Vijaendreh Subramaniam

Dr. Kenny Yong now believes that he is a Messiah chosen by God to teach us how to defeat COVID-19 like he did.

He is no Messiah. In fact, he is an object lesson on how NOT to treat or prevent COVID-19.

He refused to get vaccinated, and falsely blamed his own mother for infecting him and his family with COVID-19 from the Sinovac vaccine, which is impossible.

And when they both got infected, he put both their lives at risk by self-medicating with ivermectin and other alternative treatments.

They were only admitted to the hospitals when they “crashed” on Day 8, after a week of alternative treatments. This clearly shows that ivermectin and all those alternative treatments they took were USELESS!

Yet, he continues to promote ivermectin, and calls the doctors who treated them “stupid”, “assholes” and “royal circus clowns”.

Lillian 

Lillian is a fan of Dr. Kenny Yong, who gave her testimony on the efficacy of ivermectin in the DrKENNY CoVid19 SURVIVOR Q&A WhatsApp group on 11 August 2021.

She revealed that her family took “ivermectin, 2000 IU of Vitamin D3 and Vitamin C” to protect themselves from COVID-19 when her eldest son tested positive for COVID-19.

Nevertheless, the rest of her family became infected – both Lillian and her husband as well as their two younger sons.

Despite continuing to take “ivermectin, 2000 IU of Vitamin D3 and Vitamin C“, now to treat COVID-19, Lillian and her husband took a turn for the worse.

Only when they became breathless about a week later, did they seek medical attention. They were taken to the Serdang Hospital, where they were given oxygen.

Four days later, they transferred to ICUs in private hospitals, where they were still breathless and required high-flow oxygen support.

They continued to take 3 capsules of ivermectin every day, but this time, Lilian claimed that they worked and she recovered after 14 days in the private hospital.

Lillian gave her testimony to support the use of ivermectin, but frankly, she serves as an object lesson on how NOT to treat or prevent COVID-19.

Just like Dr. Kenny Yong, they chose to self-medicate with ivermectin and supplements, and only sought medical help when they were both breathless.

At that point, their lungs were damaged and they required high-flow oxygen. It took them more than 2 weeks and many days in expensive ICUs to recover from COVID-19.

Does that sound like ivermectin helped at preventing or treating COVID-19? Or does it look like a complete failure?

Don’t tell Lillian that. She continues to believe that taking ivermectin saved their lives.

I feel so sorry for the doctors and nurses who actually saved their lives. And not forgetting the high-flow oxygen that kept both Lillian and her husband alive.
