美國疫情爆發，有些人卻忙着騙錢，搞僞科學防疫
New York State attorney general Letitia James has ordered right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones to stop making misleading claims about supposed coronavirus cures sold on his website, InfoWars.
紐約州總檢察長Letitia James已要求右翼陰謀論者Alex Jones停止製造關於所謂的冠狀病毒治療藥物的誤導性言論，這些藥物在他的InfoWars網站上出售。
The attorney general’s office “is extremely concerned” about Jones hawking these products on his online show, it said in a cease-and-desist letter dated March 12. The products include a “nano-silver” toothpaste, which Jones said “kills the whole SARS-corona family at point-blank range.”
總檢察長辦公室在3月12日發出的警告信中說，他們“非常關注”Jones在其在線節目中兜售這些產品的行爲。在這些產品中有一款“納米銀”牙膏，Jones說這款牙膏“能近距離殺死所有非典病毒”。
There is no medical evidence behind these claims. In fact, the Federal Drug Administration and National Institutes of Health say colloidal silver is not safe to use and can even cause argyria, a bluish-gray skin discoloration that’s typically permanent.
這些說法並沒有醫學根據，而且美國聯邦藥物管理局和美國國立衛生研究院說使用膠體銀不安全，甚至會導致銀質沉澱症，皮膚會變成藍灰色，而且通常是永久性的。
“As the coronavirus continues to pose serious risks to public health, Alex Jones has spewed outright lies and has profited off of New Yorkers’ anxieties,” said Attorney General James in a statement. Such misrepresentations are illegal, according to New York law.
總檢察長James在一份聲明中說：“因爲疫情使公共健康持續受到嚴重威脅，Alex Jones就編造了這樣的彌天大謊，靠紐約人的焦慮牟利。”紐約州的法律規定，這樣的不實言論是違法的。
InfoWars was not immediately available for comment. A product on the InfoWars page that contains SilverSol, one of the fake coronavirus cures, has a disclaimer on the purchase page, but it’s not clear when the note was added: “The products on this page are NOT treatments for any disease. They are not for use in the cure, treatment, prevention, or mitigation of any disease.”
InfoWars網站沒有立即對此事發表評論。該網頁上一款含有銀溶膠（一種假的治療冠狀病毒的藥物）的產品的購買頁面上有一個免責聲明，但不清楚是什麼時候加上去的，聲明中說：“本頁產品不能治療任何疾病，不能用於任何疾病的治癒、治療、預防或緩解。”
But one of the colloidal silver products is still advertised on the InfoWars website with a massive banner.
但InfoWars網站上仍有一款膠體銀產品的大標題廣告。
