Be wary of fraudulent COVID-19 supplement claims
While many people are doing their part by social distancing in an effort to remain healthy and protect the community, there are others looking to make a quick buck.
Those fraudulent marketers are popping up and promoting various products that claim to help prevent or treat COVID-19, said Janice Hermann, Oklahoma State University Extension nutrition specialist.
“Fraudulent COVID-19 products can come in many varieties including dietary supplements and other foods, as well as products claiming to be tests, drugs, medical devices or vaccines,” Hermann said.
