Gardaí have closed down a tanning salon in Waterford which suggested that UV light could help kill the coronavirus.

The salon, which remained open even after the government announcement that all non-essential businesses should close, also posted on its Facebook page that there were reasons to believe COVID-19 was "one big lie on a global scale".

Brianna Parkins and Lorcan Nyhan discussed this and other coronavirus stories in The Week Trending.
