NZ Should Ban Antibacterial Handwashes
September 07, 2016
According to this article on RadioNZ, New Zealand should follow in the footsteps of the US and ban some antibacterial handwash ingredients which apparently contribute to antiobiotic resistance.
"Consumers may think antibacterial washes are more effective at preventing the spread of germs, but we have no scientific evidence that they are any better than plain soap and water," FDA drug evaluation and research director Janet Woodcock said.
Hear hear! Let's act for the common good people!
