The documentary revealed that garment makers were paid just 3p per item.
The brand has also been criticised for toxic chemicals, such as lead, PFAS and phthalates found in clothing, following an investigation conducted by
last year. They have also received backlash for stealing designs from independent designers without permission or credit and for how they handle customer data.A representative for Shein told GLAMOUR: "We are extremely concerned by the claims presented by Channel 4, which would violate the Code of Conduct agreed to by every SHEIN supplier. Any non-compliance with this code is dealt with swiftly, and we will terminate partnerships that do not meet our standards.
The company has also launched a resale program, which they announced on the same day of Channel 4's documentary release. Thismodel with the Shein Exchange encourages shoppers to buy and sell previously owned products. However, the move is being dubbed as "hypocritical" online following the finding of the Channel 4 doc. One person: "48 hours after SHEIN were outed for paying their garment makers just 3p per item, they decided to launch a resale app called SHEIN Exchange to "influence and promote mindful consumption among its customers." @SHEIN_Official: please explain what's "mindful" about sweatshop labour?."According to a fashion writer.

Comparison of Long-Term Complications of COVID-19 Illness among a Diverse Sample of Children by MIS-C StatusMost pediatric COVID-19 cases are asymptomatic; however, a small number of children are diagnosed with multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), a rare but severe condition that is associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Persistent symptoms of COVID-19 illness in children diagnosed with/without MIS-C is largely unknown. A retrospective EHR review of patients with COVID-19 illness from one pediatric healthcare system to assess the presence of acute (<30 days) and chronic (≥30, 60–120, and >120 days) long-term COVID symptoms was conducted. Patients/caregivers completed a follow-up survey from March 2021 to January 2022 to assess the presence of long COVID. Results showed that non-MIS-C children (n=286; 54.49% Hispanic; 19.23% non-Hispanic Black; 5.77% other ethnicity; 79.49% government insurance) were younger (mean age 6.43 years [SD 5.95]) versus MIS-C (n=26) children (mean age 9.08 years, [SD 4.86]) (p=0.032). A share of 11.5% of children with MIS-C and 37.8% without MIS-C reported acute long COVID while 26.9% and 15.3% reported chronic long COVID, respectively. Females were almost twice as likely to report long symptoms versus males and those with private insurance were 66% less likely to report long symptoms versus those with government insurance. In conclusion, a substantial proportion of ethnically diverse children from low resource backgrounds with severe COVID illness are reporting long-term impacts. Findings can inform pediatric professionals about this vulnerable population in post-COVID-19 recovery efforts.
