Monkeypox – finding a solution

Latex Free Products
Latex comes from the rubber tree and is widely known to cause allergic reactions. An allergic reaction is when your body overreacts to a particular substance (such as latex, kiwis or pollen). Most clinical environments will routinely substitute out latex products as a precautionary measure if possible. MWE’s products do not contain latex.
