Sure it's bad, but not like you are saying. They are not getting any latex in their samples (and they probably checked that from the beginning). They are saying that the powder that keeps the gloves from sticking together, which is not plastic and they knew was not plastic, can register as plastic in some of their machines.
So, re-calibrate and/or re-train the machines then. This might be advanced, but is not rocket science along the lines of creating warp drives.
Last report I heard about the microplastic problem found microplastics in the testicles of one-hundred percent of the men tested. Yes. We still have a problem with microplastics no matter how hard the plastic pimps want to create clickbait suggesting that microplastics aren't nearly bad enough to ban them from collecting addictions, private islands, and yachts.
Yes. It's still bad. See 50 years of cancer-causing tobacco denialism as evidence of what we'll face once the harm yells louder than the denial can be paid to.
