The maker of Dettol and Lysol, which hit headlines when Trump falsely said disinfectant injections could fight coronavirus, posted a huge surge in sales

on Thursday that "exceptional demand" led to huge sales growth in the first quarter of 2020 as customers stocked up on cleaning products, painkillers, and hand sanitizer.

Revenue for the UK based consumer-goods group rose 12.3% to £3.5 billion in the first quarter of 2020, even though consumers faced some product shortages. Reckitt responded to shortfalls with its "typical can-do attitude" and by ramping up production, the company said."Despite the significant pressures presented by COVID-19, our global teams have worked around the clock to ensure continuity of supply," he said.

Revenue through ecommerce was particularly strong in Greater China, where sales of Dettol and infant milk formula rose, and in North America, that saw milk formula, cough syrup and mineral supplements doing well.
