    Well any country that blows up our kids with road side bombs, mostly thru their stooges, is only going to get so much sympathy from me. The fake news, and the fake news paramours like to float the "sanctions are hurting the Iranian people with Corona" Lie on and off. The actual truth is there are no sanctions against Iran for medicines or medical equipment, they can buy as much of them as they want. Its not America's fault they'd rather buy missiles and build nuclear bombs instead and that they dont give a squat about their own people. And they spend plenty of money financing terror groups, their budgets are plenty high for that.

    Even if we eased sanctions they would just use the money for weaponry and terror. While I do feel sorry for the average Iranian this is also a Govt. of screwballs that would send thousands of kids thru mine fields to clear them in time of war by getting blowed up. The place is ran by elitist , ruthless savages. Those Mullahs would screw up anything and they are a big reason the Saudi's are crushing them with oil prices. Attacking a neighbors oil facilities will tend to do that to you.

    They can all rot for all I care.

    No, people, methanol is not a cure for COVID-19.

    Industrial alcohol coronavirus ‘cure’ kills hundreds of Iranians


    It looks like alcohol was touted as a cure, but some unscrupulous supplies cut ethanol with methanol or didn't know how to properly create a still.
    Standing over the still body of an intubated 5-year-old boy wearing nothing but a plastic diaper, an Iranian health care worker in a hazmat suit and mask begged the public for just one thing: Stop drinking industrial alcohol over fears about the new coronavirus.

    The boy, now blind after his parents gave him toxic methanol in the mistaken belief it protects against the virus, is just one of hundreds of victims of an epidemic inside the pandemic now gripping Iran.




    Iranian media report nearly 300 people have been killed and more than 1,000 sickened so far by ingesting methanol across the Islamic Republic, where drinking alcohol is banned and where those who do rely on bootleggers. An Iranian doctor helping the country's Health Ministry told The Associated Press on Friday the problem was even greater, giving a death toll of around 480 with 2,850 people sickened.





    The poisonings come as fake remedies spread across social media in Iran, where people remain deeply suspicious of the government after it downplayed the crisis for days before it overwhelmed the country.

    Update: Iran Has Lost 17 Officials, Nearly 15,000 People to Chinese Coronavirus

    The Saudi news agency al-Arabiya identified in a report Monday at least 17 senior members of the Iranian Islamic regime who have died from the Chinese coronavirus since the outbreak in that country began.

    The National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), the largest anti-regime dissident organization, claimed on Monday that nearly 15,000 people in the country have died of coronavirus infections, about five times the death toll the Iranian regime officials claims to have counted.


    Tehran has documented 44,605 cases of Chinese coronavirus within its borders and claims 2,898 people have died since the outbreak began there. In addition to the NCRI, many observers – including local Iranian officials – have disputed this number, most simply by noting that adding up the number of cases and deaths recorded by each Iranian region results in a much larger number than the one documented by the federal government.


    According to al-Arabiya, 13 Iranian officials are currently struggling to overcome a coronavirus infection in addition to the 17 who already died. The Saudi outlet claims to have gotten the numbers by compiling reports from Iranian state media on individual officials who have been confirmed as carriers. The coronavirus patients reportedly span nearly all areas of the Iranian regime, including the clergy and the Iranian military, which Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamanei tasked with coronavirus response. Some of the dead publicly blamed the United States for the virus before their demise.
