Gargling Hydrogen Peroxide for Covid
Gargling hydrogen peroxide to prevent COVID-19
Recently, there has been a discussion on gargling hydrogen peroxide to prevent COVID-19. The speaker said that hydrogen peroxide has the ability to sterilize and disinfect, and the oral cavity is one of the ways for novel coronavirus to enter the body. If it is often gargled, it may kill the virus in the oral cavity and prevent its infection.
However, this statement is doubtful. Hydrogen peroxide is active, and although it has the effect of disinfection, its impact on the oral environment is unknown. The flora ecology in the oral cavity is delicate, and gargling hydrogen peroxide or breaking the balance of flora can cause other diseases. Moreover, even if it can kill oral viruses, novel coronavirus invades the respiratory tract and other places, and only the mouthwash cavity may not be able to stop it completely.
Furthermore, the amount and degree of use are difficult to control. If it is too thick, it will damage the oral mucosa, cause discomfort, or even damage tissue; if it is too light, it may not achieve the expected antivirus effect.
To sum up, there is no conclusive evidence to gargle hydrogen oxide to prevent COVID-19, and it should not be trusted. The way to prevent the epidemic should be based on scientific guidelines, such as vaccination, frequent hand washing, wearing masks, and maintaining social distancing.
