Lawyers for the family say a jury in St Louis, Missouri, awarded $72 million in damages.

Jackie Fox died of ovarian cancer in 2015, aged 62, two years after being diagnosed with the illness. Her family said she used Johnson & Johnson's talcum powder for nearly 50 years, and claimed her death was a direct result.

The family argued the company knew about the possible risks of using products containing talc, but failed to warns consumers about them.

The case is part of a wider lawsuit brought by nearly 50 women against Johnson & Johnson.

1) you do not just suddenly get cancer from something in the 49th year of using a product

2) perhaps she was using it inappropriately? (50 years, really??)

3) there is a direct correlation between getting older and chances of cancer (she was 60+) ... maybe her family should sue Father Time.

Considering how long this stuff has been in use, and how widespread, you would have thought that we would have been hearing it for decades now.

Altho.. yes.. you could suddenly get cancer in the (in this case) 48th year of using a product. -Cigarettes- It's a build up, it's not an instantaneous thing after all.

I think in many of these types of cases, the jury shit is basically... bullshit. I mean.. what jury generally doesn't want to stick it to a huge rich corporation for the little man.

It's like you said though... you would have thought we would have been hearing it for decades now.. but there might be proof "Big Talc" has been hiding it from it's consumers.

Babies are literally hooked on the stuff, it's like all they do is cry until they get some!!!

It doesn't require a conspiracy for us to not hear about something that is nevertheless true.

For the Obamacare diehard supporters...

Subsidies would not be necessary if healthcare insurance/costs were affordable.
(as a reminder, subsidies are a form of wealth transfer)

A significant part of why Obamacare is 'unaffordable' for many is its 'comprehensive' nature, which includes coverage far and beyond what is necessary and padded with electives,
Which ironically inflates healthcare costs by instilling artificial profit margins (charging people for coverage that they will rarely if ever actually utilize).

Genuinely affordable healthcare would be restricted to basic preventative care, and basic emergency care.
Anything beyond that should be separate additional coverage *purchased* by those wanting semi-regular elective services (eyes, dental, etc).

I'm glad to know that you're here to tell people what they believe about the Republican healthcare plan that Obama passed. Thank you.

I might also note that corrective lenses tend to be important for many people to carry out their jobs and bad dental care causing a whole slew of other health problems.
