AZ Attorney Gen. sent cease-and-desist letter to air-purification firm and the Phoenix megachurch

Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich sent a cease-and-desist letter on Thursday to an air-purification firm and the Phoenix megachurch that hosted Trump's visit this week, demanding they stop making fraudulent statements about preventing COVID-19.

Before Trump's June 23 visit, Dream City Church leaders Luke Barnett and Brendon Zastrow brought national attention to the firm Clean Air EXP when they made a video claiming their new air system would get rid of the novel coronavirus and make it safe to visit their 3,000-seat auditorium.

Brnovich, in a release today about the cease-and-desist letter, said Clean Air EXP "has advertised and continues to advertise" that it can "neutralize COVID-19," yet his office "is aware of no scientific research or public health authority certifying any kind of treatment product as a means of preventing COVID-19 infections."

A similar warning and cease-and-desist letter also went to Dream City Church, the AG's Office said.

We understand there is recent confusion around the claims made by one of our customers around our laboratory testing.

We’re at the forefront of air and surface purification testing and technology – we tested with a third-party Certified Biosafety Laboratory on the best coronavirus surrogates available (Coronavirus 229E and Cystovirus Phi6) and found our patented technology leads to a 99.9% elimination of airborne coronavirus surrogates. We do not, however, eliminate COVID-19 at this time. Our coronavirus surrogate testing results are significant for the future of clean air. We welcome the opportunity to collaborate with the CDC for additional laboratory testing and support the CDC’s guidelines on hygiene habits to prevent the spread of COVID-19.




I'm sure the CDC will be calling CleanAir Exp today to collaborate!

They tested "the best coronavirus surrogates". Yeah, not the novel COVID-19. As if the CDC wants to collaborate with them. Idiots!

The Arizona Attorney General's Office says it processed 280 customer complaints of fraud and a similar number of price-gouging reports during the COVID-19 lockdown.
There’s nothing like a global pandemic and historic unemployment for making a quick, dirty buck.

Read their Prospectus the other day,first thing that jumps out is,a third party certification's but not listing a contact info as to whom they were.

Usually when it comes to Electronic of any nature,Under Writers Labs was the safe source of Certification. And from time to time,they have had issues.

Then i realized; Trump is a “coronavirus surrogate.” He was exposed to their system and his survival proves the system doesn’t work.
