„Leacul” promovat pe rețelele de socializare pentru ciuma din Siberia. Firma ce vinde produsul este condusă de un adept al teoriilor conspiraționiste
An American company is selling a $300 kit claimed to be a cure for the Siberian plague, led by a conspiracy theorist. Following the suspicious death of a lab worker in Siberia, social media users are promoting this kit, urging others to prepare. The kit includes doxycycline, an antibiotic used for plague treatment, but experts warn against taking antibiotics without proven exposure. They highlight the risks of creating antibiotic-resistant bacteria and note that the kit contains hard-to-obtain medications like ivermectin, which is not effective for bacterial infections. Experts criticize the exploitation of medical crises by scammers selling unproven products.
