Approximately 469,129 units of Easy Care, Adventure, and CVS brand first aid kits and individual burn cream packets are being recalled because FDA laboratory testing found they were contaminated with Bacillus licheniformis and Bacillus sonorensis bacteria. The recall includes various first aid kits containing 0.9g packets of 'After Burn' or burn cream, as well as boxes of individual cream packets. These products were distributed nationwide and in Canada. No illnesses or injuries have been reported to date.
Using contaminated burn cream on broken skin or severe burns can lead to serious bacterial infections. This poses a significant health risk to consumers, particularly those with weakened immune systems or underlying health conditions.
