Johnson & Johnson to appeal $70M verdict alleging talcum powder link to ovarian cancer

Johnson & Johnson has faced multiple lawsuits related to allegations that its baby powder has a link to ovarian cancer - something the company strongly denies. A St. Louis jury on Thursday awarded a California woman more than $70 million in her lawsuit alleging that years of using Johnson & Johnson's baby powder caused her cancer, the latest case raising concerns about the health ramifications of extended talcum powder use.
