Alcohol-Free Hand Sanitizer Recalled for Microbial Contamination

HLI dba Humphreyline Inc is recalling 975 bottles of alcohol-free hand sanitizer due to microbial contamination. The product was distributed in Kentucky, Maryland, and Virginia.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text does not report any illnesses, injuries, or hospitalizations. Per the rubric, a Class II recall without reported adverse health consequences is typically scored as Moderate (2) or High (3); given the lack of reported harm and the specific nature of the contamination in a non-sterile product, Moderate is appropriate.
