Johnson & Johnson hit with $72m damages in talc cancer case
Never thought that something like this would happen in todays world. Johnson & Johnson has been used by familys since….forever, powdering the bodys of the very young and the very old.
Is talc safe?
There have been concerns for years that using talcum powder, particularly on the genitals, may increase the risk of ovarian cancer.
But the evidence is not conclusive. The International Agency for Research on Cancer classifies talc used on the genitals as “possibly carcinogenic” because of the mixed evidence.
I don’t think the family will ever get a payout, but i can see the talc market for Johnson & Johnson going down in first world countrys.
