U.S. halts
imports of Ansell condoms

The Food and Drug Administration is halting all imports of Ansell-brand condoms made at the company's Thailand manufacturing plant after two lots of condoms failed to meet FDA safety standards, the Australian Associated Press reports. The brands of condoms affected include LifeStyles, Mates, Manix, and Kama Sutra. The condoms will continue to be banned from the U.S. market until 10 successive shipments from the Thailand plant pass FDA testing. (Advocate.com)
