"Many kids mistake the pods for candy. Since the pods emerged on the
market two years ago, thousands of cases of child poisonings have
surfaced from kids putting the pods in their mouths. Other children
have choked on the pods. A 7-month-old baby in Florida died after
ingesting one.

The Centers for Disease Control says pods represent an emerging public
health concern. Poison control centers say more than 9,500 children
have been poisoned by pods since 2012."

Should the pods be banned or should the adults that don't know how to keep
poisons out of the reach of children be banned?

Better yet, if a kid ingests a poison that an adult didn't secure, that
adult has to ingest the same ratio of poison to body weight that the kid
did.

I was not suggesting a solution. Just pointing out a concern for those
with children or children that may visit a home, should be aware of.

Same as keeping Draino under a sink that children can access and
consume, like last century. It's an education in current events.
