The Food and Drug Administration on Thursday issued a warning to consumers about hand sanitizers that are flavored and packaged in food and drink containers, which increases the risk of people accidentally drinking them, particularly children.
According to the warning, the agency has found hand sanitizers with flavorings such as chocolate and raspberry, and in packaging including beer cans, water bottles, juice bottles, vodka bottles, and children’s snack pouches—some of which were marketed with cartoons aimed at children.
Why would you even do that? The world needs hand sanitizer and will buy every scrap of it they can lay their hands on. You don't have to make them cutesy or marketable. Just sell the sanitizer.FDA issues warning to not ingest hand sanitizer... Even if it's food flavored and comes in a food container... https://arstechnica.com/science/202...and-sanitizer-even-if-its-sold-in-a-beer-can/
THANK YOU! If they meant different scents that's one thing, but flavors assumes one would be ingesting them.why do hand sanitizer need flavors in the first place?
My understanding is that the line between flavoring and fragrence is often a blurred one, since a large part of flavor is scent.THANK YOU! If they meant different scents that's one thing, but flavors assumes one would be ingesting them.
Yeah. I mean, lavender can be an herb (certain types of lavender, not all), but you'd not immediately think "flavor".But then they should use a scent that people, especially children, associate with soap, for example.
The part that amazes me is that Bath & Body Works have made this a cornerstone of their brand for something like 30 years, and despite being cutesy and marketable, I don't remember them having to make an announcement not to eat them. Have we really gotten stupider, or are people *still* buying Trump's bullshit about ingesting to prevent Covid?Why would you even do that? The world needs hand sanitizer and will buy every scrap of it they can lay their hands on. You don't have to make them cutesy or marketable. Just sell the sanitizer.
In our district, they are going full re-open September 7th. I predict they will last, at most, two weeks before heading back to Online Only.In other, "Why are we doing this?"-related news, our schools are supposed to open for hybrid learning in 2 weeks. Our superNintendointendent sent out an email yesterday that our town/district/whatever has had 60 teachers either take retirement, a leave of absence, or taken the option to teach online due to their own children required to remote learn. Don't get me wrong, I fully support those teachers taking those options. But the email goes on to say that means they need to fill 43 spots with at least a proctor for in-class supervision.
To recap: 43 empty teaching spots, two weeks to fill them.

The 1st day of school:
Keep in mind that the same people who are actively refusing to take any precautions for covid19 are also cheering on a 17 year old gunman for killing protesters in Kenosha, WI, and are actively pushing for civil war. My psychiatrist once told me that there's a simple cure for the problem, which is related to deeply-seated personality disorder, but that it's so abhorrent that it will never be used; .45 ACP.I don't understand... That is, I do understand, but I can't comprehend, why parole keep being so short sighted and wilfully blind.
Europe is far from covid-free, and obviously we won't be, any time soon. But limiting yourself all together for just a few weeks would allow you to reopen afterwards and probably actually stay open
These idiots are solely responsible for all measures staying half-baked and therefore ineffective.
If, in a fantasy world, literally everyone would stay indoors for 3 weeks all together, covid would be all but eliminated. If 70% of the people were to stay at home for 3 weeks... Well, you've seen what that does. Next to nothing.
I think that might make me consider a new therapistKeep in mind that the same people who are actively refusing to take any precautions for covid19 are also cheering on a 17 year old gunman for killing protesters in Kenosha, WI, and are actively pushing for civil war.

That seems like a pretty horrible thing for a therapist to say, even as a joke.My psychiatrist once told me that there's a simple cure for the problem, which is related to deeply-seated personality disorder, but that it's so abhorrent that it will never be used; .45 ACP.
TBH, this is what you should use to follow that up.The latest from Trumpers who don't understand science? The CDC released a report that 94% of COVID-19 related deaths had some form of co-morbidity, so morons are shouting "ONLY 6%!" and trying to claim that there have been less than 10,000 deaths from COVID-19 in the US.
Nearly half of Americans have high blood pressure, same goes for obesity. 53% of those hospitalized for COVID-19 had high blood pressure, and about 60% of those hospitalized were obese or severely obese, if I read the statistics correctly.
Nearly 7.7% of Americans have asthma, 8.4% of COVID-19 deaths had asthma.
Basically, the number of people hospitalized for COVID-19 who had some other health problem is not that far off from the percentages of the general population who have a pre-existing condition.
If anything, the 6% figure should be absolutely terrifying, since it means even people who are in otherwise perfect health can require hospitalization, and even die, from COVID-19.
That's not how herd immunity (without a vaccine) works. Unless you mean they're hoping they can maximize the amount of poor/minority deaths by pushing this ludicrous proposal now, and then switching over to a vaccine once it's available, but I don't think there's any reason to think they have that much control over the situation, not when so many Trumpers are also anti-vaxx.As long as they're mostly poor/minorities its nbd.
