Title: Asbestos discovery triggers Johnson & Johnson baby powder recall in US
Post by: mozart123 on October 21, 2019, 12:18:55 AM
Health care giant Johnson & Johnson has recalled 33,000 bottles of baby powder in the US, after health regulators found trace amounts of asbestos in a bottle purchased online.

Government officials said customers should stop using powder from the affected batch "immediately".

J&J said it had launched a review and prior tests have not found asbestos.

The firm is facing thousands of lawsuits from people who claim its talc products caused cancer.

Johnson & Johnson has strongly denied those accusations.
