GFA Production is issuing a voluntarily nationwide recall of a first-aid burn cream and kits that contain it because of bacterial contamination.

The Easy Care first aid afterburn cream is sold in boxes of 10 single-use packets and is included in some first aid kits.

The Food and Drug Administration says using the cream could lead to life-threatening conditions in immunocompromised people. For those not immunocompromised, it could lead to skin infections.

The FDA has not received any reports of people getting sick.
