A few hours after Dr. Trump's latest quack medical advise on Thursday, *Good Morning Britain* had a smirking Dr. Hilary on to speak to the scientific theories behind Dr. Trump's unique advise. "I've heard some crazy things in my life but this is probably one of the craziest-- to use a disinfectant and inject it into the human body is not only toxic and highly poisonous but would do no good whatsoever. It would cause inflammation of human tissues, and not touch the virus at all, which actually lives in human cells, not on the surface of them. So he is completely and utterly crazy ... more »
