The EPA is cracking down on bogus coronavirus products being sold by online retailers like Amazon and Ebay.

The agency has banned dozens of products that promise “Coronavirus Protection” or “Complete Sterilization”. Many contain pesticides or other toxic chemicals like chlorine dioxide or methelyne chloride, which can cause health issues or even death.

Both retailers say they have pulled the sketchy products from their sites, and Amazon says it is “taking action against the bad actors who listed them”.

Why are people falling for these false products? What’s the best source of accurate information about coronavirus?
