TylerDurden8823, Misinformation related to the COVID-19 pandemic or even Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine might be better able to use that source; this article is very list-formatted and I can't see how to integrate it.. HLHJ ( talk) 06:42, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
Please, remove Arbidol from this article. It has never been "falsified", and has scientific evidence of efficacy - http://www.chinaxiv.org/abs/202002.00065 + https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/32171872 — Preceding unsigned comment added by AYaroslavsky ( talk • contribs) 04:36, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

There must be some way to change the statement that sunlight will not kill the virus. I keep hearing that it will. Example 1 Example 2 Example 3 There may be some specific way that it won't Example,(dead link) but that needs to be very specific.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 16:21, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
To gain credibility the article needs to distinguish between the effects UV-C, UV-B and UV-A on viruses, the omission may mislead.
Uv-C is all too effective in killing viruses, it damages the patient too much

"Hot saunas and hand or hair dryers do not kill the COVID-19 virus.[40][16]"
UV-C light, chlorine, and high (over 56 °C) temperatures cannot be used on humans to kill the COVID-19 virus.[43][16]"
see my sections:
Talk:Misinformation related to the COVID-19 pandemic/Archive 1#UV and heat might kill the virus
and
Talk:Coronavirus disease 2019/Archive 3#some stuff about UV rays to disinfect
What if it's a hot hair dryer?
Just how high can the covid-19 can take? Above 38°C, 39°C, 40°C (108°F)?
Could a good fever for a few hours kill it?
DMBFFF ( talk) 16:10, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
Surely a fever is the normal bodily reaction to most infections? Is a fever not a symptom of a COVID-19 infection? Indeed, no fever ever reaches 56-Celsius, the discussion here is merely absurd. Damorbel ( talk) 07:48, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
How do people feel about removing the picture of UV light being used to sterilize a BSC? This is commonly done but not recommended and the NIH and CDC are against it. UV doesn't work in shadow or on porus material and the lights can become ineffective without it being obvious to the user.

There's a significant amount of new research on Andrographis that's emerged since the comments by AP fact checkers made that statement. It is no longer true. For a collection of scientific research as well as media coverage, you can find all relevant references here: http://kingofbitters.com.
Hope to see this updated! Thank you editors for all your good work...

In India, Methylene blue is used by doctors and people themselves as a treatment. Media and social media both promoted its use. AIIMS had advised against its use. See. How should I add it here? - Nizil ( talk) 06:15, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
The article claims not proven facts. Regarding the treatment with hydrogen peroxide, there are running different serious studies e.g. https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/record/NCT04378712. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anicka37 ( talk • contribs)
I don't know exactly what the aim of this page is (or should be), but as it stands it is itself full of false or misleading claims. Someone thinks eating mango will cure (or alleviate the symptoms of) COVID-19; it ends up in a "fact or fiction" page on the WHO website; and then that gets cited here as "Eating mango or durian will not cure COVID-19". Well, that's not actually what the source said! The source said there isn't evidence for it. We can't claim that mango doesn't cure COVID-19, because that study hasn't been done. I think if this page is going to be useful, the claims need to be properly categorized: "Unstudied", "studied but poorly", "studied and failed to reject null hypothesis". -- Phyzome ( talk) 04:21, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
I similarly feel this article is biased and chaotic. jimswen ( talk) 00:20, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
