The World Health Organization has issued an urgent warning to citizens of several countries to avoid fake slimming injections that have recently been discovered, which could be deadly. The British newspaper The Times reported that the organization has found these counterfeit injections in several countries, notably the UK, the US, and Brazil.
It indicated that these injections are being supplied through the organized supply chain, meaning they could have been provided by clinics or licensed physicians and could affect people. The WHO confirmed that these fake products contain harmful or undisclosed ingredients, putting the lives of users at risk.
The organization urged regulatory agencies to exercise caution regarding batches of Ozempic and other weight-loss injections. It advised people to look for warning signs, including spelling mistakes.
