~I thought J&J already settled a big class-action lawsuit on that, didn't they?~

Edit: I was misremembering an ongoing lawsuit as having been resolved: https://www.nysd.uscourts.gov/MDL/22md3043

Apparently J&J spun off their consumer health products, including Tylenol to Kenvue in 2023.
I didn't realize at first that the spin-off would be the ones who retain the legal liability but I suppose it makes sense with it being split off from the original company (which makes more sense than if Tylenol was sold to a third party).
