Claim: A person who died by drowning can be brought back to life by covering the body with salt.
Fact-check: A person who died by drowning cannot be brought back to life by covering the body with salt - FACTLY
Verdict: there is no scientific evidence to prove the claim. none of the suggested treatments for drowned persons include covering the body with salt. there are multiple instances in the past where people superstitiously covered the drowned dead persons with salt. however, none of them were brought back to life. hence the claim made in the post is false.
