The EPA ordered Berkey to reclassify their water filter as a pesticide-treated device? Because the silver content kills microbial bugs


The EPA ordered Berkey to reclassify their water filter as a pesticide-treated device?  Oh, because of the antibacterial properties of silver parts inside the water filter?  Wait, because the silver kills bugs?  Oh, my God.  From MyHealthForward,
Berkey Water Filters and the EPA have been fighting for over a year. The EPA has blocked Berkey from selling their water filters since last December when they first issued a stop-sale order in Decembrer 2022. Berkey’s water filter element claims to stop biological growth. The EPA considers this claim and the water filters to be a pesticide as a result. Berkey is suing the EPA in response. Berkey water filters cannot be sold in California because of their no-lead law. Do you think Berkey or the EPA is in the right here?
