    Where was this originally posted?

    Whenever I read a line such as, "Immunity is greatly weakened by always staying in a sterile environment. Even if you eat immunity boosting foods, please go out of your house regularly to any park/beach." my bullshit detector goes off. The household is not even remotely a sterile environment. It's utterly filthy and disgusting, no matter how well you clean. Then the bit about immunity boosting foods?! The earlier points make more sense, but it's almost like those last lines got tacked on by someone.

    A good friend of mine that works at the hospital here shared it on her facebook page.

    And yes, the house isn't sterile but your body is used to the germs in there.

    Where did she get it from? I find it hard to believe that the last part it would have been posted by someone in that position, but then there has been some strange stuff posted these days, so who knows.

    I'd love to see the original list. I would be shocked if it included the stuff at the end.

    Growing up on a farm... I thought the stuff at the end was common sense.

    I dont know where she got it from to be honest. I just thought it made a lot of really smart points and felt it was worth sharing.

    If you find out let me know. I'd be interested in reading the original source. It looks like made up Facebook stuff as it currently sits. In fact, when I do a google search for these exact lines, all I get is a list of the points and, again, no source material. It basically looks like spam. I'm open to seeing evidence that it is not though.

    Well you know, if it's on Facebook, it has to be true.

    Glad you understand my concern...haha.

    In terms of lists, I prefer this one, that shows a small sampling of Covid-19 BS.

    Appears to be made up, the best I can tell. Some are sourcing it to "The Head of the Infectious Disease Clinic. University of Maryland" and "Dr Feheem Younus" but this does not appear to be a legit source. IE: https://thuppahi.wordpress.com/2020/...-the-covid-19/

    Dr. Younus does exist, though, and some of his tweets are consistent with some of the messaging in the list...

    Indeed, some of it is similar. And some of it is not. I feel pretty confident, absent of any other evidence, that this made up list, was not from him. Just more Facebook BS.

    So there was 16 points listed in the post. Which ones do you feel are inaccurate/BS?

    Facebook BS is a catch all term for stuff that comes from Facebook but does not seem to actually come from anywhere reputable. Some of this stuff makes sense. As I said previously, what got my BS meter going was the stuff near the end that started talking immunity boosting foods, the home being a sterile environment, and being exposed to pathogens. It reeks of "chicken pox parties" type thinking. But then again, I only grew up on an acreage, and not a full farm, so what do I know.

    So the fact that I told you that it came from a friends post on Facebook means that the information is inaccurate, not the information itself.
