An Ontario-based holistic clinic is among seven North American companies warned by U.S. regulators to stop selling products with false claims that they can treat the new coronavirus.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the Federal Trade Commission announced Monday it issued the warnings letters, saying these "are the first to be issued by the FDA for unapproved products intended to prevent or treat" COVID-19., based in Sarnia, Ont., was the sole Canadian company among the seven recipients.

In one Facebook post, the FDA says Vivify wrote the company was "working very hard" to create a website to sell someone's allegedly successful coronavirus protocol. The FDA letter instructs Vivify to "take immediate action to correct the violations" it cites within 48 hours and warns failure to do so could result in legal action, including seizure and injunction.

Vivify's Facebook page and websites no longer appear to show the claims contained in the letter. The URL for the website that the letter says included the words coronavirus defence appears to have been changed to make no mention of the coronavirus.David Raes, the owner of Vivify, said in an email late Monday that the company "simply sells herbs with no claims on them."

The FDA does not fool around, they will target shyster companies or individuals selling magic elixir potions that suckers buy. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency usually are like the Trudeau gang, weak with diluted effectiveness in addressing fraudulent products.

Canadian version of FDA, whatever that is, is like:
