I-FTC ithe ngenxa yolwazi olungelulo…[+] lusasazeke kuFacebook nakuTwitter, inkampani ibonelela ngonyango olurhanelekayo lwe-COVID-19 okanye i-coronavirus.
Phakathi kolwazi olungeyonyani olujikeleze i-coronavirus, amabango ethemba lokunyanga intsholongwane kunye nonyango zixhaphake kakhulu.NgoMvulo, i-Federal Trade Commission kunye ne-US Food and Drug Administration bathathe inyathelo lokulumkisa iinkampani ezisixhenxe malunga neentengiso zabo zemveliso ekulindeleke ukuba zincede ukulwa i-coronavirus.
Iinkampani ezichaphazelekayo zibandakanya: I-Vital Silver (i-colloid vitality), i-Quinessence aromatherapy, i-N-ergetics, i-GuruNanda, i-Vivify Holistic Clinic, i-Herbal Amy kunye noJim Bakker Show.Wonke umntu wafumana iileta ezilumkisa ukuba ukwenza amabango angenabungqina kunokwaphula uMthetho we-Federal Trade Commission Act.
Ngokwesikhokelo se-FDA: "Okwangoku akukho zitofu ezivunyiweyo, amayeza okanye iimveliso zophando ezinokuthi zisetyenziswe ukunyanga okanye ukuthintela intsholongwane."I-arhente yathi abathengi akufuneki bathenge okanye basebenzise "engavunywanga, icocwe okanye igunyaziswe yi-FDA ukuba inxulumane neemveliso ezinxulumene ne-COVID-19".Ke ngoko, ngaphandle kokuba zingqinwe ngokwesayensi ukuba zichanekile, nayiphi na inkampani ethi iyakwazi ukulwa ne-COVID-19 akufuneki ingayihoyi, kodwa iyihoye ngokupheleleyo.
Enye yeenjongo ze-FTC kunye ne-FDA yokucinezelwa yintsomi yokuba ukusela isilivere kunokunceda ukubulala i-coronavirus.Le yingxelo yobuxoki eyenziwe nguJim Bakker Show.Umamkeli wayo, umgqugquzeli weTV ongonelisekanga uJim Bakker (Jim Bakker) ukhuthaze uthotho lweemveliso-zesilivere yesilivere, ijeli yesilivere kwividiyo enesihloko esithi "Uphononongo oluneenkcukacha lwento engekathethwa yi-coronavirus."Iintsini kunye neelozenji zesilivere.Umnini wakha wathi ukusela isisombululo sesilivere kunokubulala i-coronavirus kwiiyure nje ezili-12, kodwa umsasazi weTV owaziwayo kwihlabathi u-Bakker wabizwa yiRight Wing Watch ngoFebruwari.
Omnye umxhasi wepanacea nguLife Silver, oxhasa abefundisi kwiphepha lakhe likaFacebook kwaye uthi: “Enyanisweni, inzululwazi kunye noluntu lwezonyango ngokubanzi lukholelwa ukuba isilivere ye-ionic ibulala i-coronavirus.Ngoku kuyaziwa ukuba amaTshayina asebenzisa isilivere ye-ionic ukulwa nokusasazeka kwecoronavirus. ”Ngaphandle kwala mabango akrokrelayo, izithuba zikaFacebook zisekhona.“Andizange ndiqonde ukuba inkampani yam yophule imigangatho ye-FDA, okanye nayiphi na inkcazo yayijongwa njengobuqhophololo.Ngokuhambelana nesicelo se-FDA, ndicime zonke iingxelo malunga ne-COVID-19 kwiwebhusayithi yam nakwimithombo yeendaba zentlalo.Umnini wamandla uJennifer Hickman uthe.
I-N-Ergetics ikwakhaliphile ekubhengezeni amandla esilivere: "Isilivere ye-Colloidal iseyeyona nto yaziwayo ye-antiviral ebulala zonke ezi coronavirus zabantu zisixhenxe."Isithethi se-N-Ergetics sixelele iForbes ukuba baqokelela Emva kwesi silumkiso, iwebhusayithi iye yahlaziywa kwaye yathi: “Asibanganga nayiphi na imveliso ukuba inamandla okuthintela, ukunyanga okanye ukunyanga izifo zabantu… Naziphi na iimveliso esizinikezelayo. Intengiso ayenzelwanga ukunciphisa, ukunqanda, ukunyanga, ukuxilonga okanye ukunyanga i-COVID-19 yaBantu. ”
Amayeza, i-oyile kunye neti nazo ziye zabuzwa ngamaziko karhulumente.Iyeza lesintu u-Amy walunyukiswa ngeemveliso ezingavunywanga “zeCoronavirus”, eziquka: iTea yeBone yeCoronavirus, ukuKhuselwa kweeSeli zeCoronavirus, iArhente yeTin yeCoronavirus, iNkqubo yokuKhusela i-Coronavirus kunye ne-Elderberry Berry.Kwiwebhusayithi yayo, ithi: "Amayeza amaninzi aneempembelelo ezinamandla zokulwa ne-coronavirus."
U-Amy Weidner, umnini weHerbal Beauty, uthe wasisusa isibhengezo ngenxa yesilumkiso.Uxelele iForbes: "Ngenxa yokuba iyimveliso yendalo yendalo, i-FDA ayifuni ndicaphule nabani na kwinkcazo yemveliso ethetha ukuba inokunyanga, ukuthomalalisa okanye ukunyanga nasiphi na isifo."Xa ebuzwa xa kunokwenzeka ukuba atsho ukuba ngaba iimveliso zakhe ziluncedo na kwi-coronavirus, wathi: "Andinakuwenza la mabango, kodwa imifuno isetyenziswe iminyaka engama-3000 ukunceda umzimba womntu ukumelana nesi sifo."
Kwangelo xesha, abantu babona ukuba iGuruNanda iphakamisa isisombululo sayo sentlaka yokuqhumisa, iQuinesence yeoyile yayo ebalulekileyo kunye neVivify, iti emagqabini, zonke ezi zithembiso ziya kunceda ukoyisa i-COVID-19 ngaphandle kwenkxaso yesayensi.(UGuruNanda uthe emva kokufumana isilumkiso se-FTC, "naluphi na ulwazi olunxulumene nonyango okanye uthintelo lwe-COVID-19 kunye ne-coronavirus lwacinywa kwangoko.")
Wonke umntu uthengisa iimveliso zakhe kumaqonga onxibelelwano, ngakumbi uFacebook noTwitter.Iisayithi ezinjalo zizama ukumisa ulwazi olungeyonyani, kodwa kucacile ukuba iinzame zokuqinisekisa iinyani kunye nokubuyisela abasebenzisi kwimithombo yolwazi lwezonyango ethembekileyo bekunzima.
Usihlalo we-FTC uJoe Simons ulumkise ukuba iinkampani ziyakuthatha ithuba loloyiko lwe-coronavirus.USimmons uthe: “Abantu banenkxalabo enkulu malunga nokusasazeka kwecoronavirus,”.Kule meko, asifuni iinkampani ukuba zibambe abathengi ngokuthengisa iimveliso ezinokuthintela ubuqhophololo kunye neemfuno zonyango.
Kwiiveki zamva nje, inani elikhulu lobuqhophololo elinethemba lokufumana inzuzo kwi-coronavirus lisasazekile.Umzekelo, i-spam ibizama ukukhohlisa abantu ukuba batyelele iiwebhusayithi besebenzisa iindlela zokuthintela ezingeyonyani kunye nolwazi olungeyonyani lwe-coronavirus ekufutshane.Kwangelo xesha, iAmazon ikhuphe iimveliso ezisisigidi esi-1 ngamabango obuxoki e-coronavirus.
Ngasekupheleni kweveki ephelileyo, inkampani ye-cybersecurity iMalwarebytes ikhuphe isilumkiso kwiwebhusayithi ibanga ukuba ibonisa iimeko zekoronavirus zamva nje kwimephu yehlabathi, kodwa isiza sifaka cwaka sifaka i-malware ngelizama ukubiwa amagama ayimfihlo kunye nolwazi lwekhadi letyala kwiindwendwe.
