US President Donald Trump is known for provoking controversy, but his recent statements about injecting sterile patients with corona materials have brought to mind his positions that he clashed with scientists and subjected him to great criticism.
Below, we review the 8 most prominent statements or actions in which Trump shocked scientists:
- In 2017, a rare solar eclipse occurred, prompting space scientists and ophthalmologists to warn repeatedly against looking directly at the sun without protection, except that the photos showed the US president staring in the naked eye with his eyes before wearing protective glasses.
Climate change is one of the most criticized topics that Trump has presented. Despite warnings from scientists around the world that climate change is an urgent issue that cannot be postponed, Trump used to describe this issue as a "hoax", until recently.
- The US president also believes that the wind turbine noise, which he refers to as "windmills", causes cancer, which is an inaccurate conversation, according to the Associated Press.
- In other shocking comments, Trump said that exercise "drains the body's energy", while doctors tell people that exercising is "a very important factor" to maintain good health.
When Trump wanted to defend his warning that Hurricane Dorian was threatening last year, he reviewed a climate map that had been altered with a map marked for expansion of danger areas. Worried, they made clear that the state was not in the path of the hurricane, according to the Associated Press.
Last Thursday, Trump raised the idea of injecting antiseptics to fight the Corona virus, which medical officials warned of its seriousness.
The president later said that he was being taunted, although the text of his statements suggests otherwise.
