Of course it is.
Church warned to stop claiming COVID can be eliminated with air filtration
Trump's kind of Christianity.
Gantry's, too. And Sharon Falconer's.
The attorney general of Arizona issued a warning letter to a megachurch that claims its air filtration system "kills 99 percent of COVID within 10 minutes."
Attorney General Mark Brnovich sent the letter to Phoenix's Dream City Church on Thursday, saying that their claim -- which Brnovich said was not backed by any science -- may be illegal.
"In the absence of scientific evidence regarding COVID-19 specifically, statements suggesting that a product could provide nearly guaranteed protection from COVID-19 infections create a misrepresentation or a false promise.
Misrepresentations and false promises are illegal under A.R.S. § 44-1522," Brnovich wrote.
The church, which can seat 3,000 people, had also claimed "when you come into [the church's] auditorium, 99 percent of COVID is gone" and "you can know when you come down here, you'll be safe and protected," according to his letter.
Dream City Church, which has six other locations, made some of the claims in a Facebook video ahead of hosting President Donald Trump this week.
