A U.S. federal appeals court on Monday blocked California from requiring that Bayer AG label its glyphosate-based weed killer Roundup with a cancer warning, handing the company a victory in its ongoing litigation over the product.

Shubb on Monday said that finding alone did not support California’s requirement to label glyphosate products with the term “known to the state of California to cause cancer.” Bayer, which acquired Roundup with its $63 billion purchase of Monsanto in 2018, faces lawsuits by more than 52,500 U.S. Roundup users, and juries in three trials have ordered the company to pay billions after finding the product caused cancer. Plaintiffs allege that Bayer manipulated studies and deceived the scientific community.

Socialism is a mental illness

Long live to glyphosate, fuck the savages ambientalists

DrAhlamBouariky Blocking a label does not change facts

Corruption continues - Monsanto is horrific

about time.

I am so sick of uber rich corporations having more rights than actual American humans. CorporateGreed corporateaccountability Resist

We have cancer labels on everything... but not what actually causes cancer. 🤔

Also Monsanto invests in people who become the head of the FDA who then quit to come back to work for Monsanto, they've done every evil thing a company could do and people still don't give a shit.

Can we burn down Monsanto? I mean my god they shifted to making these pesticides when they outlawed the chemical weapons they used to make. Truly an evil evil corporation that successfully patented lifeforms, if nature brings round up ready corn onto your land they can sue you.

Tell deplorables they can drink it . Kills Covid 19! Dummies will believe anything!

That is WILD. Three juries decided it causes cancer. Then this court says no?

Why

Roundup is poison and it causes deadly lymphoma in humans. Maybe we need to share this message widely.

Shame, this muso be out of market

Health and safety vs profit

PipsToDollars The label?!?!? lol why the Fuck are they still even selling it?

It's the damn product that should have been banned along Monsanto and Bayer. With modern hydroponic techniques and other great methods, weed killers are entirely useless.

get rekt california.

RoundUp is a vitamin. Duh

I’m not sure what’s worse, a judge not allowing a cancer warning on Roundup or Trump telling everyone to drink bleach.

Don’t buy that liquid Chernobyl. Use vinegar, soap, and salt instead

Deja vu. Seems like the same tactics used by the tobacco industry in the past.

Why does anyone buy round up? The shit never worked and you can easily kill weeds with some vinegar, bleach, and water mixed. If you really want your weeds gone for good, pluck em. Save yourself money and from getting cancer.

A campaign of massive information is due in USA to advise farmers about how dangerous is the product

Sorry, but a warning label will not hurt sales. Come on, Bayer.

California thinks everything causes cancer.

I guess we know exactly whose going to approve ACA 5 also

just stop testing for cancer. it'll go away. because we test so much for it, more people get it. TrumpLogic

“The World Health Organization’s cancer research arm, which determined the herbicide to be a “probable carcinogen” in 2015.” Bayer continues to try and settle the 52,500 cancer patients suing Bayer over their illness, caused by Round Up, out of court.

Of course, why should the public know!?!?

Corporatist hacks

Wonder how much Bayer paid that judge

Pathetic. Bought and sold by Monsanto.

I wonder how much money they spend lining their pockets.
