Will They Both Be Called Johnson?

Johnson & Johnson To Break Up Into Two Companies | The Daily Wire

Ok, I don’t really have anything to say about this. Was just struck by the humor of it.

Johnson & Johnson is separating into two different companies, keeping its medical tools and prescription medication disconnected from its company that will sell everyday items such as Band-Aids, baby powder, and items like Listerine.

As reported by The Wall Street Journal:

J&J will shed its consumer division in 18 to 24 months, Chief Executive Alex Gorsky said. J&J decided to make the change, he said, because the businesses, their customers and markets have diverged so much in recent years, including during the pandemic. Lawsuits that alleged use of Johnson’s Baby Powder caused cancer didn’t play a role, he said.
