The Food and Drug Administration warned right-wing media personality Alex Jones to stop making false coronavirus claims about products touted and sold by his websites or face legal action and a possible order to pay back consumers
Jones has claimed the products sold on InfoWars, which have no evidence behind them, can "boost your immune system." He said in March said the wound gel and two toothpastes are "on record taking out viruses and bacteria."FDA and the Federal Trade Commission gave the InfoWars founder 48 hours to respond to their warning and threatened to seize products or take legal action if he did not.
FDA has issued a range of warnings in recent weeks to stem an increase in false claims about coronavirus cures, from silver products to the popular marijuana byproduct cannabidiol. There are no products proven to treat or prevent the coronavirus.
