                        1. I purchased some KN95s early in the pandemic before there were a ton of resources for iding fakes and started using them when people were recommending switching away from cloth masks. After checking this article I became sure they were fake. taraparkerpope/1482352347976278019?t=Z83-tihYqvYsQDBlo7ALlg&s=19

                        I purchased them off Amazon, and it looks like they figured out they were fake too because they were de-listed. Amazon could have informed me of this when they took the action (they emailed me to rate the masks!) but they did not. I'm fkin pissed.

                      If Amazon removes a safety product because it is unsafe, they should be required to inform purchasers.

                    The company appears to have relisted the same masks with slightly different text and a different box. But still missing the characteristic text that should be stamped on the front.

                  So it's clear Amazon lacks a policy to deal at with what appears to be a seller company level fraud?

                They appear to not be authentically certified, however they were recommended by Yahoo & People. Both articles note the company producing them was on the emergency list of non-certified vendors early in the pandemic when masks were hard to find, but that list has been invalidated

              Editors who understand how SEO works, and how people search should have unpublished the links in these articles when the list oking them was revoked by the CDC.

            Now I gotta check lists of recommendations for a dateline to avoid products on revoked list, but that's not enough. NBC is recommending a mask I was looking at, even after noting the approved list has been explicitly revoked. The CDC states the co is misrepresenting itself

          The whole point of the CDC revoking the list appears to be that you now should not use them since more effective masks are not available! On top of that I am not feeling particularly trusting of a company the CDC notes as misrepresenting itself.

        It's baffling to me that NBC would actively and currently recommend makes on the revoked list! Entirely inappropriate.

      This list of masks is part of the NBC Selects program, which means that not only is NBC actively recommending masks off a revoked list which are specifically now not recommended by officials, but they're also making a profit if you click their link to buy a delisted mask.

      It's insane to see legit news institutions actively distributing what is fundamentally misinformation in literally the worst case scenario for affiliate marketing, worse then I could have imagined. It's also insane that it's on individuals to patrol Amazon, instead of a regulator

        I don't see how we can still be pushing solutions based on individualism at this point. How are we the richest country in the world and we can't implement a single top down solution to COVID? Instead America's primary policy is caveat emptor, with your life on the line.
