Mother and children drank their own urine for four days in UK due to COVID-19 misinformation

 

In a bizarre incident, a woman in the United Kingdom drank her own urine for four straight days along with her children after she watched a dubious video on the internet claiming it was a cure for corona, reported News 18.

 

The mother told investigators from Healthwatch Central West London (HCWL) that they drank urine as a cure to COVID-19 after watching a video sent by a relative. In the video, it was suggested to drink urine each morning.

 

However, after four days, she stopped drinking urine.

 

The details of the incident were published in Healthwatch’s report into coronavirus misinformation. The Healthwatch Central West London in the report said that people believe in fake remedies and conspiracies shared via WhatsApp as they believe that a stigma is associated with coronavirus.

 

The health watchdog also highlighted that people do not trust official channels of information.
