Can Chlorine Dioxide Cure Malaria?

After St Patrick’s Day mass in Nairobi I learned about a trial in Uganda in 2012 in which the water treatment agent, chlorine dioxide (sodium chlorite and acid activator) was found to cure malaria. And this effective solution was covered up. I found a video describing the trial and have uploaded it to Rumble ‘LEAKED Proof the Red Cross Cured 154 Malaria Cases with Chlorine Dioxide’.

The video was provided by Jim Humble who developed the chlorine dioxide treatment used that is called MMS. More information on the product is available on his website. There is a conclusion in the video from his colleague, Leo Koehof. The trial was carried out in December 2012 by Klass Proesmans of Water Reference Centre with the Red Cross at Iganga, Uganda. Patients were tested for malaria parasites using Rapid Diagnostic Tests and positives rechecked by microscope. Positive patients were given the MMS treated water (see picture). All tested negative when retested then next day or day after. Over the course of the test 154 patients were cured with no apparent side effects.

However, the cover-up began immediately. Klaas Proesmans of Water Reference Centre, the narrator of the video, and the Red Cross denied that the study occurred. Leo Koehof included a link for his YouTube video but the link is no longer active. The cover-up continues. My first upload of the video to YouTube was removed nearly instantly as ‘medical misinformation’.  ‘Content that poses a serious risk of egregious harm by spreading medical misinformation that contradicts information from health authorities isn’t allowed on YouTube.’ Now after the lies of the COVID scamdemic the social media moguls and medical establishment are not fooling us.

I have more questions. The study, while interesting was relatively uncontrolled. Would the patients who tested negative the next day have tested negative anyway without the treatment? Or if given water treated with other water treatments such as chlorine or hydrogen peroxide? I do not believe that the plasmodia are a parasite that cause illness, but a symptom of poor health. This marker of malaria discovered by Lavaran in 1880 needs to be better understood.

I investigated chlorine dioxide in my previous role as Product Development Manger at Aquatabs, a water treatment tablet manufacturer. However, while gaseous chlorine dioxide is a marvellous water treatment chemical, tablet and solution products don’t just add chlorine dioxide to water, but also the chemicals that are required to generate it – sodium chlorite and an acid and whatever stabilisers are needed for the product. I thought it less appropriate for daily use than the chlorine-based water treatment products already made by Aquatabs.

However, for curing malaria, a product already used as a water treatment seems much less likely to have side-effects than the course or artesunate injections typically prescribed in Kenya and elsewhere for patients who test positive in a malaria test RTD.

Further research such as this on water and nutrition to prevent and treat malaria are the objectives of Understanding Malaria CLG.
