Anderson Cooper invited Lindell onto his CNN show after he claimed to have been told about a new cure that helps prevent COVID-19.
— one which has gone through zero testing or peer review — and Anderson lit him up like a sad, rarely watered Christmas tree.show after he claimed to have been told about a new cure that he immediately told the Trump administration to check out. Trump in turn, has been promoting the use of oleandrin, an extract from the highly toxic plant Nerium oleander as a treatment. Now is probably a good time to mention Lindell is on the board of drug developer Phoenix Biotechnology.
Lindell insisted that “there have been human studies, absolutely have been human studies,” but did not say where, when, or by whom they were performed, only that, “he’d seen them.” “So this guy called me on Easter Sunday and said he had an answer to the virus,” Lindell explained, saying someone from Phoenix Biotechnology reached out after Lindell publicly asked for a cure for the virus.
According to Lindell, he met with Trump last month to discuss oleandrin despite there being zero scientific proof of the drug’s potential in fighting COVID-19. Lindell responded, “I have no monetary gain here.” Cooper, who took a beat to roll his eyes and sigh loudly, responded, “That’s not true. You’re gonna make money off this. You’re on the board of this company.”
