Why will people try anything besides real medicine :(
From the “we take everything except real medicin”-department.
You see, they don’t trust Big Pharma and multi-billion dollar corporations, that’s why they do their “research” using only small artisanal free range websites like Facebook, Twitter and TikTok…
So glad we have whole departments of #doctors and #scientists who will give us the truth and the science to help protect our #health… Oh, sorry… that was last year.
This year, the heroin addict in charge of the health department says drink some oil, it will make the imaginary #measles go away.
A cod liver isn’t a snake. It can’t be that bad.

I mean, it’s not the worst thing in the world. In Norway it’s a pretty normal supplement, I’ve taken one tablespoon every(ish) morning in the months with a R in them, but that’s mostly because we don’t really see the sun… so fatty fish is one of the few natural sources of vitamin D we have.
That would be a legitimate medical use vs the complete nonsense of using it for measles.
You will be able to see who the anti-vaxxers are by the diarrhea shooting out of them.
You guys, we are going to need to make a whole new country to get away from this madness.
God, that actually sounds kind of nice.
Leeches and blood letting. I mean at this point why not?
Stop spreading misinformation.
You need warm pigeon blood, followed by a strict diet of roasted onions and three hail Marys.
Technically not snake oil.
So this is fun: actual snake oil (the type made by Chinese railway workers) probably had some medicinal benefits. However, white “doctors” co-opted this for their medicine shows; it contained no snake and was just mineral oil, so this is where the term has its origins.
Maintenance Phase podcast did a great episode on medicine shows.
Lol and yet, simultaneously, it is snake oil, at least figuratively.
Drinking snake oil would be crazy
Drink cod oil instead
Guess someone at the cod liver oil factory was successful at starting a rumour.
But more likely it was some crackpot theory that got amplified.
First person to combine this with crypto will make bank.
$CodCoin here we gooooo!
So now they’ll still have the measles but also be spewing out of both ends nonstop… Lovely.
I guess it’s better than drinking Borax or injecting bleach…
Omega 3 aside, it’s not even effective in improving cholesterol levels. It does have a laxative effect though.
Where’s the ground zero for this misinformation? RFK?
Somebody has been playing too much We Happy Few
