For any medical/ scientific anons out there, I found this product on Amazon and wonder if this or something similar could be a serious treatment option for people experiencing respiratory distress:

Equisilver respiratory Solution (check it on Amazon, the reviews are useful)

Used in a nebulizer or even a personal mist device for humans, obviously.

If it works, it works, and if effective could potentially help a lot of people. Already tested on animals and known to be safe, so there’s that. Animals don’t experience the placebo effect.

Also, silver is already known as a strong antimicrobial, and has been studied fairly extensively not just by people looking for alternative medicines, but by the National Institutes of Health:

Silver vs. HIV-1: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2818642/

Silver vs. bacteria: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2364932/

Silver vs. herpes & parainfluenza: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3826769/

Another thing: if effective, as a water-based inhalable aerosol solution wouldn’t this be usable in a vape kit, making it relatively simple for people to administer at home before symptoms get serious?

I don’t have the answers, but am hoping that somebody in a position to research treatments for the coronavirus and upper respiratory infections in general might take it seriously as a potential solution. As an added benefit, I have to think that the raw materials for creating an adequate supply of silver solution to treat a sizable population would be relatively easy and inexpensive to acquire.

I really hope someone will look into this.
