A New Jersey-based medical care and skin care products manufacturer is voluntarily recalling multiple types of hand soap, cleanser and antiseptic products due to bacteria contamination.

DermaRite Industries, LLC announced a recall of its DermaKleen antiseptic lotion soap with vitamin E in 1,000-milliliter and 800-milliliter sizes, as well as KleenFoam antibacterial foam soap with aloe vera (1,000-milliliter sizes), DermaSarra external analgesic (7.5-ounce sizes), and PeriGiene antiseptic cleanser (7.5-ounce sizes), all of which were distributed in the U.S. and Puerto Rico.

    I like how the ‘voluntarily’ is a positive spin that suggests that the norm is that companies would only order a recall when pressured by a court order.

    I mean it’s a good thing that they did recall it, however the norm should be that every company did that in similar situation.

    It’s weirdly post-truth-ish that owning up after a mistake is seen as news worthy.
