A California company is facing scrutiny from members of Congress and the city attorney of LA for selling kits that it claimed could be used to test for coronavirus 'in the home or at the bedside.'

"I don't know how to answer your question, OK," Saltrelli said."Other than, it was normal."

As for the manufacturer of the kits, Saltrelli said,"we're not going to give you the exact source," adding,"Right now, we're sourcing them from Hong Kong."on the website that said the tests were actually made by a biotech company in mainland China, the Hangzhou Biotest Biotech Co."Obviously, there's a huge demand," Saltrelli said."We've just got to make sure we've got enough coming in to cover it.

Attorney General William Barr and President Trump have promised to"aggressively" prosecute fraud related to the coronavirus pandemic.Chris Kleponis/Bloomberg via Getty Images "The two have nothing to do with each other," Saltrelli said."Everybody, including every single congressman, every politician, has done certainly the exact same thing at some point."

When emailed a series of questions about the test kits, Todt replied that he was willing to address them only in a live TV or radio interview.

CityAttorneyLA That 2-minute coronavirus test FDA approval was a 'misunderstanding'

Like I've been saying for so many months these people don't know what they're testing for with so many different test kits coronavirus or the common cold

Charge with fraud and prosecute.

It's a company. It's sole reason for existing is Money! Every corporation is Exactly the same. So, if you are interested in investigating a Company, at least do so for a real reason!

Wellness Matrix stock is now totally worthless. But what happened to the profits generated by the short term stock spike when they first marketed this fake stuff? Corporate officers should be arrested for fraud!

Wellness Matrix Group Inc Snakeoilsalesman

If we didn’t have a clown in charge of this pandemic, people wouldn’t have to resort to such drastic measures.

Hey, Bill Barr - whalers you at with this or is this company one owned by the GOP!?!

I don’t blame ppl who are buying them they are desperate to know their status. The fact that companies are willing to make money on that shows the evil in our society.

There used to be laws against this kind of thing! These hucksters and con artists are everywhere, and they were getting away with cons like this, before the Deadly Pandemic!

This is call capitalism entrepreneur, not the idea to make profits no matter what.

To quote Doctor Donald, 'What harm could it do?'

They should be under arrest. Not under scrutiny!

They should be shut down and their products seized. No tolerance for exploitation that could lead people to falsely believe they're not infected when they are.

Under scrutiny? WTF aren’t the executives already in cuffs?

Looks like they took their cue from Trump and his lies about the malaria drug

CAVEAT EMPTOR, folks. Tis the season for unscrupulous hellhound criminals to take advantage of frightened vulnerable people. Don't be one.

can't believe I'm using a Putin clip here. But revoke that license

Always some dirtbags trying to profit

Scammer love COVID19Pandemic

Scrutiny? It should be 'investigation'

If you’re interested in buying one of these kits, I’m also offering some cheap land down in Florida I’ve been saving for a rainy day. So let’s make some sunshine magic happen. DMs open

Send them all to prison

crack reporting there NPR

NPR should be under scrutiny for taking $75 million in the coronavirus bill while millions of Americans are dying and in real pain. Shame on you, NPR! DefundNPR

So shut down the company , seize their work and transfer it to a company with ethics.

We as a society used to execute those that preyed upon people in disasters. I used to think it was barbaric but I kind of understand it now.

Listen, most of the people who died in Italy was taking a ACE inhibitors for cardiac failure. The Virus is a ACE2 inhibitor. Why aren't Americans being told this? I read the JAMA. Ugh

The test works. If you can hold your breath waiting for the kit to never arrive you don’t have the virus.
