Fear of parasites have led thousands of people to post pictures of their own feces in a private Facebook group and then pursue a range of remedies proposed by other group members that medical experts consider unsubstantiated by scientific research and potentially dangerous.
The posts in these groups follow a clear pattern: A member writes about a perceived health condition or symptoms along with any regimen they’re undergoing. Then, in the first comment, the member usually follows up with a photo of what they claim is their poop.“What is this? It feels like a slug. It is at least 2 inches long and it is the only thing that came out. Pic in comments,” reads a recent post in the Humaworm Parasite Removal & Natural Health Group, which has 33,000 Facebook members.
One private group with 1,300 members, called “Parasites cause all Disease,” promotes drinking turpentine to cure ailments. The group’s members, however, clearly take the topic seriously. Many of the posts come from parents looking for ways to treat what they believe are parasites in their children.
People are really weird 💩
Is anyone surprised by this?
Oh no! That is totally gross.
Facebook will be the death of all of us, not Skynet
its always interesting to watch ignorance pool in a dark corner somewhere........oh Darwin, you rascal.

Hmmm, that sounds exactly like what NBC does- post crappy news then talk incessantly about their crappy news.
When dig more trouble cause roots we only get more troubles and fear register in mental core with or without the virus In same way healing works too but little more in timely
I'm not worried until RealGilbert RealGilbertACP does this. Then I'll worry.
I feel like Facebook is the bigger parasite in this age.
Less Facebook and more healthcare.
Merde!
Facebook is becoming a very dangerous place.
Insane. This is what your crazy liberal Looney toons have come down to and NBC (MSM) you in conjunction with academia hold a good part of the blame

Posted ad nauseam for days. This is NBC's idea of 'news.'

I’m reminded daily that deleting my FB was absolutely necessary.
