It's also a gas at room temperature and dissipates immediately upon opening the package. Conspiratorial thinking has rotted everyones brains to the point of delusions.

source please, why is their limits & time constraints to exposure then if it 'dissipates immediately'? Sounds safe & effective

where does it say "dissipates immediately" fucktard - it doesn't. 'Conspiratorial thinking' like realizing it defies logic & is not scientific to have to stay 6ft away with a mask to avoid particles...yet needing to swab the brain & amping up 40x to get a sample. Try again
Quotes from your link:
In smaller amounts, ethylene oxide is used as a pesticide and a sterilizing agent. The ability of ethylene oxide to damage DNA makes it an effective sterilizing agent but also accounts for its cancer-causing activity.The primary routes of human exposure to ethylene oxide are inhalation and ingestion,
Which cancers are associated with exposure to ethylene oxide? Lymphoma and leukemia are the cancers most frequently reported to be associated with occupational exposure to ethylene oxide. Stomach and breast cancers may also be associated with ethylene oxide exposure.

This is fucking stupid. EO Ethylene oxide is commonly used to sterilize medical products after packaging and prior to shipment. Single use swabs are individually packaged in a porous media, then loaded into bulk outer shippers of corrugated cardboard, placed on a pallet, and then the entire pallet full of tens of thousands of swabs is passed through a sealed chamber filled with EO. It sits in the gas for a couple of hours so that the EO gas can migrate through all the packaging and kill everything that might be living on the swab. By the time that swab touches your skin the EO gas is long gone.
This woman is delusional if she thinks she is a medical investigator.

Of course. This is how the medical industry makes money. Maybe people are finally waking up to that.

Don't they use EO to disinfect all medical equipment though?
The question is whether the application of EO is specific to these COVID test swabs and has only been used in the past year, or if they have always been using it to disinfect swabs and we simply haven't noticed until recently.

They do. This is fear mongering among midwits on the right. It's been used on swab products for a while, I can find clinical research and reports dating to a decade ago regarding buccal swabs.
The occupational exposure limit is 1ppm continuously for 8 hours a day, 40 hours a week, over a lifetime. The question is how much of it is concentrated in these swabs and if you absorb it in that form.

There's a lot of fearmongering on both sides of the fence.. it's horrendous what they'll claim for attention
