SYDNEY - A church in Australia has been fined for unlawfully advertising a purported"miracle" coronavirus cure that contains a bleach product, the Therapeutic Goods Administration said on Wednesday .

A website purportedly linked to the Genesis II Church has listed testimonials claiming - without evidence - that MMS can cure everything from Alzheimer's to malaria. "The use of MMS presents serious health risks, and can result in nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and severe dehydration, which in some cases can result in hospitalisation."

The church claims on the site that, contrary to TGA's findings, it does"not list or sell any therapeutic goods, as defined by legislation, and any apparent mention or reference to same is inadvertant and coincidental".
