Funny how you're touting the *consumption* of silver as an HCV antiviral, when
your article says *nothing* of the sort. My citation simply cuts to the core
of your delusion.

There is nothing novel about the antibacterial effects of silver. Heck, there
are companies weaving silver thread into garments for odor-control properties.
But there is no vetted rationale for the *consumption* of silver - regardless
of how many quacks there are to be found via the internet that claim otherwise
for the purpose of taking money from the gullible...

A bunch of baloney having nothing to do with HCV. HCV, in case you
didn't know, is a VIRUS. A virus is not attacked by an ANTIBACTERIAL
agent.

Duh...

I don't take direction from charlatans or nitwits, so if you feel the need to
keep spamming this group with your nonsense, you should expect plenty of flak.

That's just the way it is...
