The text questions if an Ohio governor candidate appeared in an infomercial selling dementia drugs.
Infact verdict: Mostly False (35/100).
The claim that Ohio governor candidate Vivek Ramaswamy appeared in an infomercial selling dementia drugs is misleading. Evidence indicates that while Ramaswamy was involved with Axovant Sciences, which attempted to develop an Alzheimer's drug, the drug was never sold. Therefore, it could not have been marketed to patients. This is supported by multiple sources, including a high-reliability source that confirms the drug never reached the market. The claim is based on a misunderstanding or misrepresentation of Ramaswamy's involvement with the drug's development rather than its sale.
