because they don't tell you in the head or sub-head: the brand is DermaRite. there are specific products & batch numbers in the article
Hand soaps are now being recalled because they can cause serious infection including sepsis and death.
In “healthy” individuals with minor cuts they will likely cause localized infection, but in immune compromised people it could be fatal.
Truly the worst timeline:

Outside the Japanese American Museum, one of the few places chronicling the internment of Japanese American citizens in WW2, and threatening internment again.
There are no words for how disgusting that is.

Thinking about the Cave of Hands, some of the art dating back to 7,300BC, where 25% of the hand prints are thought to be that of children. Imagining those people gently holding their child up to the cave walls, and using their tiny little hands as a stencil. Art = love = the human soul

Like I said, it's GOOD that a large number of people say that don't want to go to war with Iran. I wish people wouldn't psych themselves out. I was alive when USians were RABID in support of going to war as Vicky points out below. It was DREADFUL.

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:
1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long
All lies.

WCK resumed cooking in Gaza after our first aid delivery in 12 weeks. With new ingredients on hand, we’re preparing warm, carb-rich meals like pasta and hearty potato stews. The WCK team cooked nearly 10,000 meals on day one of resumed operations. #ChefsForGaza (1/2)

Jesus. I guess there’s nothing to lose for Israel at this point. They really don’t need to try and maintain any notion of obeying international law or human rights caring about them.
