Business Johnson & Johnson recalling sunscreens due to benzene traces
2021-07-15
[AP] Johnson & Johnson said Wednesday that it is recalling five of its sunscreen products after some samples were found to contain low levels of benzene, a chemical that can cause cancer with repeated exposure.

The affected products, packaged in aerosol cans, are Aveeno Protect + Refresh aerosol sunscreen, and four Neutrogena sunscreen versions: Beach Defense aerosol sunscreen, CoolDry Sport aerosol sunscreen, Invisible Daily Defense aerosol sunscreen and UltraSheer aerosol sunscreen.

The recall includes all can sizes and all levels of sun protection factor, or SPF. The products were distributed nationwide through retailers.

#1  The products simply are not selling. People just not sunbathing like they used to. Something about the harmful effects of exposure to the sun. The real money is in vaccines.

Maybe those old timers with the bonnets, long-sleeves, and wide brimmed hats knew something.
