The Institute of Public Health (ISP) warned on October 13 about defective male condoms. These are products manufactured by Suzhou Colour-Way New Material Co. Ltda., China, and imported and distributed by the company Cegamed Chile SA
The ISP determined that there are 46 affected batches. Of these, five have quality defects (2107012, 2107022, 2107102, 2107122 and 2107132). Still, Cegamed decided to voluntarily recall all 46 batches.
Next, the batches that the company will withdraw:
2107012, 210722, 2107102, 2107122, 2107132, 2107032, 2107042, 2107052, 2107062, 2107072, 2107082, 2107112, 2107142, 2108012, 2108022, 2107092, 2109012, 2110012, 2110022, 2110032, 2110042, 2110052, 2110062, 2111012, 2111022, 2111032, 2111042, 2111052, 2111062, 2111072, 2111082, 2112012, 2112022, 2112032, 2112042, 2112052, 2112062, 2112072, 2112082, 190920, 190929, 191101, 191120, 191920, 200905 and 2100072.
The ISP called on the population that, if they have the condoms described, not use them and return them to the establishment from which they were purchased.
In turn, the Institute urged health providers and distribution centers to stop distributing condoms -if they have them- and coordinate the withdrawal with the supplier.
