Pastor Administers Industrial Bleach To Followers For Cancer Treatment

Date:

A pastor is being accused of distributing a poisonous “miracle drink” to thousands of his followers including infants

Robert Baldwin – an American pastor – was giving a bogus “miracle cure” to almost 50,000 of his followers in Uganda as reported by The Guardian.

According to the publication the accused of promoting the substance claiming to cure many diseases including malaria, HIV/AIDs, and malaria.

The “miracle mineral solution” is consisting of sodium chlorite and citric acid, which combine to form chlorine dioxide – and industrial bleach.

The US Embassy in Kampala condemned the allegations over the distribution of the substance.

Balwin at an interview with NJ Advance media declined distribution of the “cure” saying he had close down his operations because of the hate that came his way.

The pastor who seems not to be affiliating with any church would not be reached after disabling his social media accounts and his website – Global Healing Christian Missions.

Baldwin is alleged to have trained about 1,200 Uganda clerics to help him administer the “miracle cure” and then gave the concoction to their congregates.

The Guardian contended that the drink was also given to infants as young as 14 months old.

“America and Europe have much stricter laws so you are not as free to treat people because it is so controlled by the FDA. That’s why I work in developing countries,” Baldwin said, according to The Guardian.

Health injuries reports after the use of the substance included vomiting, severe nausea, and life-threatening low blood pressure generated from dehydration. The “miracle cure” also referred to as a miracle mineral solution (MMS) has been banned in Canada and Ireland.

Baldwin said he administered the substance to his victims through the church because he had “to do it low key” to avoid unnecessary attention.

Jonathan Bonk, director of the Dictionary of African Church Biography noted that such organization such as Balwin’s should not be confused with the legitimate outreach

Bonk said operations such as that of Baldwin often promoted themselves as missionary work since it players better to American supporters.

“America has a long tradition of believing they have a lot to offer the world,” he said.

“It gives it a kind of legitimacy. They can show pictures of fairly extreme situations to register potential donors.”

But warned that such organizations are bogus.

“These are poor people who are sick and they believe they’re going to get better,” Bonk said.

“Where people are desperate for medical care, they place their faith in miracles,” he added.

In a tweet, the US Embassy in Uganda said it aware of the American pastor giving out MMS to churches in Uganda.

“We strongly condemn the distribution of this substance, which is extremely dangerous and is NOT a cure for any disease,” the tweet read.

Fiona O’Leary – a campaigner against illegitimate medicine and NMS – said Baldwin and others show up in Uganda with “the Bible in one hand and bleach in the other”.

“They go to third-world countries because they know they can get away with it,” she said.
