As with coops assuming Lariam contains chloroquine, and could have googled that for himself
Yeah, I could have - but I was busy doing other stuff at the time and just fired off a comment. And I didn't assume anything. I genuinely didn't know (and the other shit fucked me up for the best part of a week and a half). FWIW I agreed with your take on the article and what the bloke did to himself - he had something that was plainly labelled as not a medicine and took it as a medicine without a thought to dosage, why it might be packaged as something else and for that use (apparently clearly labelled as such), what might be in that product with it etc, etc, etc.
People also have an inherent ability to protect and inform themselves-especially when it's coming from Trump.
As with coops assuming Lariam contains chloroquine, and could have googled that for himself, so could the gent who died taken a few seconds to Google and check if his fish tank cleaner had any resemblance to the medicine in question, and, if it was toxic.
