Company Sells Used Kleenex - Sold Out of Product

A company sells used Kleenex that "carries a human sneeze" (or the components thereof?) for $80 a pop so people can "get sick on their terms". They are sold out of the product.
I'm at a loss. I'm wondering how this is even legal? Maybe it will turn out to be fake news.

EDIT: I went to the company's website. The "used" headline at the Fox article is a bit click-baity. They do seem to maybe be selling something that will make you sick, however I can make neither heads nor tails from the language at the website.

I heard about that on the radio this morning, but it sounded so crazy I couldn't imagine it was true. If they are selling something to get people sick, that sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen. One person's sniffle is another person's pneumonia.

I thought those virusesi would only last about 72 hours without a host.
Did the product have an expiration date?

I see it as fake advertising rather than fake news, and it's not even a halfway decent joke premise.

What you thought was snot, was not. Can we include a fortune in these?
