According to Mary McCormick, Pharm.D., administrative director of the CPCC, the majority of calls received by UConn s poison information specialists involve children.
Kids are fast.
Dawn and Gregory Price of Branford can vouch for that. We were cleaning up, getting ready for company. I was using a bottle of spray Clorox, and I put it down for a second. When she took the bottle from her daughter, who was about 18-months old at the time, she smelled bleach around her mouth. Gregory called the CPCC hotline.
