Hand (de)sanitizer?
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) uncovered a nasty little additive in some Puerto Rican hand sanitizers: bacteria. The FDA warned consumers to use neither Bee-Shield Hand Sanitizer nor MD Quality Hand Sanitizer -- which are only distributed in the Caribbean territory -- because the two products may contain Burkholderia cepacia, a bacterium that can cause serious infections if used on cut or abraded hands. No adverse effects resulting from use of the products have yet been reported to the agency.
