According to a Nov. 3 petition that Valisure sent to the FDA, some samples of Old Spice antiperspirant had levels of benzene at 17 parts per million. The brand’s parent company P&G did not respond to NBC News’ request for comment.
in bad country,, powerful corporations can simply ignore questions from the national press
if it makes you feel bettter it is probably most deoderants so there probably isn't a point in switching
more than six times above the FDA’s temporary guidance during the pandemic allowing trace amounts of benzene in over-the-counter drugs
These motherfuckers greenlit poisoning us to make things easier for companies.
If I or anyone else I know winds up getting cancer from this shit I am hunting them down individually and executing them in the streets like the bootlicking worms they are.
Ridgely, the nurse who bought the Artnaturals hand sanitizer that Valisure said was contaminated, wrote to Walmart in March and said the retailer never responded. She also left a comment on the Artnaturals Facebook page. The company responded to Ridgely in the thread by saying they were considering suing any publication that wrote about the findings.
Kill every last one of these motherfuckers when the revolution comes.
“Benzene is an extremely cheap solvent. From a chemical perspective, it’s a great solvent, and it works very well to make chemicals,” Light added. “But as the FDA itself says, very clearly, it should not be used for that.”
:agony-deep:
This is 20 pages of jargon that the FDA released about lifting hand sanitizer restrictions:

Love how libs will say “oh that child’s toy is made in China? No thank you, I don’t want lead poisoning!”
Then slather their hands in US-made carcinogenic hand sanitizer, which does almost nothing to stop the spread of pathogens iirc and also gives them cancer.
:think-about-it: Can't spread pathogens when you're dead from cancer
hand sanitizer does stop pathogens, but is not always as effective as washing you hands.
The market will correct for this :liberalism:
The situation highlights regulators’ lack of authority over over-the-counter-drug products like hand sanitizers. The FDA can’t force recalls on over-the-counter drugs, but it can pressure companies to do so voluntarily through public warnings.
The FDA can’t regulate drugs. This country is a fucking joke. This article has me black-pilling hard.
how do I read this, is it on another website
opening it gives me popups about some app bullshit
Hand sanitizer sucks. If you're in public it's pointless to use because you're just going to touch your phone/wallet/doors/whatever anyways. Much better to just try my best to not touch my face incessantly and disinfect everything when you get home. Plus you can't even use it before eating because it contaminates food you touch with god knows what so whats the fucking point? Just use soap
