LinkyPost - FDA Recall

[guppiecat]

I assume you've all heard about the Clarcon recall.

I just wanted to point out that, at its core, the problem is (paraphrased) "skin sanitizers and skin protectants that contain high levels of disease-causing bacteria".

Yeah, the sanitizer is laden with bacteria. Am I wrong or is that the sort of thing that just shouldn't happen? It's like seeing a recall on fire extinguishers because they could explode and burn the house down.

It seems like an oxymoron. Wouldn't the stuff in the sanitizer kill the bacteria?

Maybe they have insufficient alcohol content. Like a beauty product, marketed as sanitizer, but it isn't strong enough to be effective.

Oh, that's just wonderful. :-(

I liked the line products revealed high levels of various bacteria, including some associated with unsanitary conditions.

So, sterile working conditions - not.

That's what I'd have expected... sheesh.

Baffling. And oh, so very wrong.

yeah - so it wasn't even a good sanitiser!
