Sellers of misleading vitamin pills after corona not yet punished

Sellers of vitamin pills that were deemed misleading during the coronavirus crisis have so far not paid any fine. This is reported by Het Parool. After six years of waiting for a penalty measure, no money has been collected.

The issue came to light when the Dutch Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority (NVWA) warned in 2018 about fake products that were claimed to be protective against the coronavirus. Despite this warning, no action seems to have been taken.

According to the source, it is unclear why the fines have not yet been paid. The NVWA has not yet responded to questions about the progress of this case.
