Thousands of UK women plan to sue Johnson & Johnson, claiming its talcum powder caused cancer.

Thousands of women in the UK plan to sue Johnson & Johnson (J&J) over claims that the company's talcum powder products, which allegedly contained asbestos, caused cancer. J&J, which has faced similar lawsuits in the US, denies these allegations and maintains that its products are safe. The UK case, led by law firm KP Law, involves around 2,000 claimants and could be the first of its kind in the UK. J&J has already set aside billions to settle related cases in the US and announced plans to stop making talc-based powder globally.
