An antibacterial hand soap is under recall because of microbial contamination, Health Canada says.

Avmor Ltd. of Laval, Que. is voluntarily recalling one lot of its Antimicrobial Foaming Hand Soap.

"Product testing undertaken by Health Canada detected bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa) that may pose serious health risks to people, especially those with weakened immune systems," the department said in a release.

People with cystic fibrosis, HIV/AIDS, cancer, burns, diabetes and severe lung disease who bought or used the product could be affected.

Good catch my friend. I think my GF (who is a podiatrist) is using that stuff. Sending her the link!
