Nasal sprays are not substitutes for masks. In situations where you cant wear a mask, they're not proven to do anything (yet), so the hype is baseless. Another reason to be skeptical of these big time communicators that downplay masks and then sell you unapproved nose sprays...

Even if this product was proven with human trial data sent by God, you can still breathe in germs via your mouth!! This isn't a substitute for a mask, which covers both of these things!! I get that people are desperate, but we already have masks that have been proven many times over to work!

It's real slimy to hype this stuff up and not tell people there's a conflict of interest. The people actively selling this product with 0 human data are the authors of the study! Hello? There's even a chance it'll get a FDA warning letter for health claims they cant make!

Screenshot of Chise's thread about an unapproved nasal spray that's being touted as beneficial for infectious disease prevention. It reads:

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Harvard Medical School have developed a nasal spray that in preclinical studies, offered NEARLY 100% protection from respiratory infections by COVID-19, influenza, viruses, AND pneumonia-causing bacteria. Let’s talk about that! 🧪🧵⬇️
This is the conflict of interest statement from the paper being talked about in Chise's thread. It reads:

J.J., H.M.B, Y.T., and J.M.K have one pending patent based on the PCANS formulation described in this manuscript. N.J. and J.M.K are paid consultants, scientific advisory board members, and hold equity in Akita Biosciences, a company that has licensed IP generated by N.J. and J.MK. that may benefit financially if the IP was further validated. The interests of N.J. and J.MK. were reviewed and overseen by their institution in accordance with its conflict of interest policies.
A screenshot from the nasal spray vendor's website that shows they're actively selling it. The headline text reads: 

Elevate your defense against airborne germs
A legal disclaimer at the bottom of the nasal spray's website showing they're not FDA approved to treat anything or make any claims about the spray in particular, which defies the tone and implications of Chise's thread.

i’ve hesitated to post this because i trust congress as far as i can dropkick a cybertruck, but it looks like we escaped a KOSA vote until after the election. this is good. take a breath. enjoy a moment of peace. thank you for calling/emailing. let’s talk about what this means going forward. 🧵

charles murray's entire career, as it turns out, was a conspiracy by wealthy benefactors to launder race science back into the mainstream. take careful note of which powerful people in our media participated in this effort!

📭🗳️ Hey, disabled folks who care about disability issues and considering voting this November! Check out the #CripTheVotesurveymonkey.com/r/9DSFZ99

Streamers, this is who you attend twitchcon with, person below bragged about having symptoms on a plane, maskless, while still trying to produce social media content. They were proud of exposing the plane. Public health folks need to realize you cannot cater to this nor politely ask it to stop.

Tweet from a twitter user that attended twitchcon while unknowingly sick with covid
it reads:

FIRST STREAM WITH COVID AND I HIT ALMOST 6 HOURS, PLAYED 2 @playnewworld WARS, AND CHAT CAME THROUGH WITH 25+ GIFTIES

I CANNOT BE STOPPED

I AM ETERNAL

I AM ASKING FOR YOUR TWITCH PRIME

I'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW
