Cillit Bang enjoyed a burst of unexpected publicity this morning following Donald Trump’s suggestion that disinfectants could offer a potential cure for Covid-19.
The popular cleaning product went viral on Twitter with a number of old-school ads making a comeback to promote the new formula ‘Cillit bang COVID’.
Among the other bizarre suggestions, Mr Trump also inferred that using UV light on the human body could tackle the disease.
There were also genuine concerns that people might take the President seriously after previous suggestions that chloroquine might offer a cure.
