The FDA is warning people about companies taking advantage of the fears surrounding coronavirus (COVID-19) and selling fake products.
They have already issued warning letters to seven companies.
The FDA is especially concerned about products that claim to cure, treat or prevent COVID-19. This issue could cause people not to get the appropriate treatment.
