An Inventor Is Injecting Bleach Into Cancerous Tumors-and Wants to Bring the Treatment to the US
Briefly

Xuewu Liu injects cancer patients with chlorine dioxide, a toxic bleach solution, charging $20,000 for the treatment. Despite no medical credentials, he is working with a former pharmaceutical executive to bring his unproven therapy to the US. One patient reports increased tumor growth after treatment, indicating potential harm. Supporters believe Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s appointment as health secretary may facilitate approval of the treatment, which aligns with a movement toward alternative medicines and patient autonomy. The FDA's recent actions have inadvertently encouraged proponents of such controversial treatments.
