Monsanto, propri\u00e9t\u00e9 de Bayer, a \u00e9t\u00e9 condamn\u00e9 vendredi par un tribunal de Jefferson City, dans le Missouri, \u00e0 verser plus de 1,5 milliard de dollars \u00e0 trois Am\u00e9ricains qui auraient d\u00e9velopp\u00e9 un cancer \u00e0 la suite de l\u2019utilisation du d\u00e9sherbant Roundup. C\u2019est ce que rapporte l\u2019agence de presse Bloomberg, qui parle de l\u2019une des plus importantes demandes de dommages et int\u00e9r\u00eats de l\u2019ann\u00e9e aux \u00c9tats-Unis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Le juge a accord\u00e9 \u00e0 James Draeger, Valerie Gunther et Dan Anderson des dommages-int\u00e9r\u00eats de, respectivement, 61,1 millions de dollars et de 500 millions de dollars. Ces trois personnes avaient d\u00e9velopp\u00e9 un lymphome non hodgkinien et affirmaient que le cancer \u00e9tait le r\u00e9sultat d\u2019ann\u00e9es d\u2019utilisation du Roundup pour le jardinage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bayer a r\u00e9cemment gagn\u00e9 plusieurs proc\u00e8s li\u00e9s au Roundup mais, dans le m\u00eame temps, il y a \u00e9galement un certain nombre de cas o\u00f9 le jury a vu un lien entre le d\u00e9sherbant et le d\u00e9veloppement du cancer, selon Bloomberg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
L\u2019entreprise chimique allemande a rachet\u00e9 Monsanto en 2018 et a donc h\u00e9rit\u00e9 des nombreux proc\u00e8s concernant le Roundup. Le principal ingr\u00e9dient de ce m\u00e9dicament est le glyphosate. Le danger de cette substance pour la sant\u00e9 fait \u00e9galement l\u2019objet d\u2019un d\u00e9bat en Europe mais, comme les recherches sur d\u2019\u00e9ventuels effets nocifs sont en cours, la licence a \u00e9t\u00e9 prolong\u00e9e cette semaine de 10 ans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
