Will the sale of items using plastic be banned in any world country specifically because of health concerns in the next year. This can include any item made of plastic (in part of totally) in any country but excludes bans because of environmental damage rather than public health from microplastics.
This does not include the ban of a specific item that is banned for another health reason. Items that contain plastics but that not all people may be aware do (like glitter in makeup) would count.
