Ernest et al,

Sodium Bicarbonate,,of course in the right 1:1 or more concentrations,might chnge the pH enough to make a difference.

How do you get A Nitrogen atom or radical to react as a covalent bond to three Iodide radicals? This one I'm not of a chemist to understand. .

If anyone was hurt or injured, I might be able to suggest ways to help.

Most probably Nitrogen tri-Iodide. Why would sodium bicarbonate neutralize it? I don't see the chemistry behind it.
