The Utah federal court has issued a temporary restraining order to stop two companies and their owner from selling silver products for the treatment and prevention of Covid-19\. A Justice Department [statement](https://www.fda.gov/inspections-compliance-enforcement-and-criminal-investigations/press-releases/court-orders-halt-sale-silver-product-fraudulently-touted-covid-19-cure?ref=fdaweb.com) says the injunction was entered against **Gordon Pedersen**, Cedar Hills, UT, and his companies My Doctor Suggests and GP Silver.

A separate court order temporarily freezes the defendants’ assets to preserve the court’s ability to grant effective final relief and to maintain the status quo, the statement says. A hearing on the government’s request for a preliminary injunction is scheduled for 5/12.

The complaint says the defendants started in early 2020 to make a wide variety of false and misleading claims touting silver products as a Covid-19 preventive.
