What's This Recall About?

Kao USA Inc., an American company based of Cincinatti, which markets and produces skin care products, is asking consumers to check their Jergens Ultra Healing Moisturizer 3 oz and 10 oz products to determine if it is part of a voluntary recall of the product.

Select units of Jergens Ultra Healing Moisturizer may contain Pluralibacter gergoviae, a bacteria which is typically not dangerous to consumers. However, certain people with medical conditions or certain immune deficiencies can be susceptible. Kao USA is urging consumers to send products back to them, or to provide them with information related to the purchase.

Investigation to conclude the dangers are still ongoing, but Kao has taken these precautionary measure to recall potentially dangerous products before they know for sure whether these products can cause harm to consumers.
