First, yes, ingesting large amounts of bleach would likely be hazardous to one's health. The article that was linked suggests that there is a drug which is FDA approved, and used in a therapeutic context today, which may also be effective at least in vitro against the new SARS virus. It's not "haha bleach," or aggressive pulverizing, or any other dramatic form of cell death you can easily imagine. It's a drug [that was linked].
