In addition, the complaint alleges that the defendants falsely claimed that their products provide equal or better protection against COVID-19 than currently available COVID-19 vaccines.
How does the Foetid Turd Counters [FTC] KNOW that it's a false claim?
Because they said so?
Scientifically speaking, I don't see where either side of that argument can claim ascendance.
that, Vit D is ‘better,’ claim is what got him in hot water.
If the below is accurate, Vit D deficiency is not an ethnic white problem, comprising only 6% of the ‘severely deficient’ group, and, of those ‘deficient’, in the group with a bmi over 30. Which brings in to play the whole lifestyle, morbidities and nutritional history effect on succeptibility to infection of any kind. And making Vit D by itself not much more than a bit player in their disease processes, because “The median vitamin D levels of the COVID-19 seropositive and seronegative groups were not significantly different”
“54.9% of the participants were positive for anti-SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein antibodies. The median vitamin D levels of the COVID-19 seropositive and seronegative groups were not significantly different... In the severely deficient category, the proportion of individuals who are ≥ 50 years of age are less than those in the < 50 years of age. Individuals who are < 50 years of age are more likely to be in the vitamin D deficient category than in the sufficient category.
“A significantly more significant proportion of individuals in the BAME group (40%) constituted the severely deficient vitamin D category when compared to the white ethnic group (6.6%). The individuals in the BAME subgroup are more likely to belong to the severe vitamin D deficient category than the deficient category.”

“Effectiveness”
of a medicine for the treatment of a politically protected disease is a political definition.
This is the problem with the “misinformation” charge over COVID treatments.
