FACT CHECK: HINDI nag-endorso si Dr. Kilimanguru ng gamot sa sakit sa baga

WHAT WAS CLAIMED

Dr. Kilimanguru is endorsing Vitalungs, a cure for lung disease.

OUR VERDICT

Fake:

The clips and audio used in the ad were taken from Dr. Kilimanguru’s 2021 YouTube vlog and were manipulated to give the impression that he is endorsing Vitalungs.

Peke ang kumakalat na video sa Facebook na pinagmumukhang nagbebenta ng gamot sa baga si Kilimanjaro Tiwaquen, isang sikat na doktor sa social media.

Ginamit ang artificial intelligence o AI para manipulahin ang isang 2021 clip ni Tiwaquen, na kilala rin online bilang Dr. Kilimanguru.

Sa verification portal ng Food and Drug Administration, ang Vitalungs ay nakarehistro bilang isang vitamin at food supplement at hindi bilang gamot sa sakit sa baga.
