In November 2025, Abbott issued a medical device correction, reporting that there had been 736 severe adverse events and deaths connected to certain affected glucose monitors. These events and deaths occurred on an international scale. When incorrect glucose readings go without detection, inappropriate treatment decisions for diabetic people may be made. For example, patients may consume excess carbohydrates or may skip or delay insulin doses.

Around 3 million Libre 3 and Libre 3 Plus sensors from a specific production line, around half of which were used or have expired were affected. The FDA issued an early alert in December. In January, the FDA classified it as a Class I recall, which is the most serious type of recall, on January 14, a company spokesperson told Reuters. Class I recalls occur when an affected product could cause serious injury or death if consumers continue to use it.

The FDA regulates around 80% of the country’s food supply. The HFP looks over all activities connected to nutrition and food safety with an eye toward making sure that food goes toward wellness and health of the American public. The program looks at chemicals in food, reduction of diet-related chronic disease and foodborne illness.

The HFP has multi-year initiatives to the end of promoting American Health through nutrition. Some of these initiatives are concerned with removing petroleum-based dyes from food, review a range of food additives and ban them if they’re unsafe, and comprehensively review infant formula nutrient requirements.

A San Jose, California-based manufacturer of cookware items, IKM, is recalling certain pots and pans, because they might be contaminated with significant lead levels, which can get into consumers’ food.

If you believe you suffered lead poisoning due to IKM products, you should call the seasoned Chicago-based product liability attorneys of Moll Law Group.

The recalled items are the IKM aluminum saucepan wooden handle 9 inches (56 pieces); the A-cook Aluminum Kadai size 5 (43 pieces); the brass tope (10 pieces), and the IKM 4-quart Pital brass pot (9 pieces). No illnesses have been reported to date.

However, even low levels of lead exposure can result in significant health problems, especially in fetuses and children because of their rapid growth, metabolism, and smaller body size. When the levels of lead are lower, there may not be clear symptom, but the child may still struggle to learn and to suffer from low IQ and behavioral issues. When lead levels are high, the symptoms can include neurological changes, stomach pain, headache, and fatigue.

In 2019, Clorox microbiologists put out a written report documenting bacterial contamination in finished product and storage tanks, which they specified was “possibly a Pseudomonad.” After that, the company got reports that certain products in stores were cloudy. Similarly, a distributor notified the company of the same problem in multiple locations. While Clorox took steps to mitigate the potential for bacterial contamination, Clorox did not immediately report to the Commission as required.

CPSC suggested that the proposed settlement sent the message that firms that delayed in reporting serious risks would risk paying significant penalties.
