Talcum Powder linked to Mesothelioma
Talcum Powder linked to Mesothelioma
Introduction
The first New Jersey Talcum Powder trial which began this January accused J&J of hiding the link between the talc-powders and cancer. The plaintiff alleged that J&J knew for decades that the talc-based powders contained asbestos which had the potential of developing mesothelioma (a kind of a tumor of the tissue that lines the lungs, stomach, heart and other organs) but failed to warn consumers to promote sales. The giant conglomerate denies that its talc-based powders ever contained asbestos and asserts claiming that the testing techniques used in this case were faulty.
