The fire-dex non-surgical level 3 isolation gown does not have taping on the seams that prevents biohazardous fluids from passing through the seams.Fire-dex advertises this gown as meeting the aatcc 42 and aatcc 127 tests.After further investigation and testing, this gown does not meet these two tests since the seams are not covered (taped) with a material that prevents biohazardous fluids from passing through.By failing these two industry standard tests, it concludes that fire-dex is falsely advertising and marketing this product as a aami level 3 isolation gown.Please note that many of these gowns have been sold to fire responders around the united states under the false pretense that the seams will block biohazardous fluids from passing through.This item will not offer any protection to the person wearing the gown in the seam area and will contaminate the person wearing the gown.I am notifying the fda, so a recall can be issued as soon as possible.Fda safety report id# (b)(4).
