Canada/Ottawa: Tradeopia Corp recalls some Magnodots Magnet Sets due to ingestion, injury, death hazards. HCSC: http://ht.ly/pSuQs

Direct link: http://healthycanadians.gc.ca/recall-alert-rappel-avis/hc-sc/2013/36109r-eng.php

Additional information:
Health Canada/Santé Canada (“HCSC”) reports the following Magnet Sets are subject to this recall:

• Magnodots Original 125
• Magnodots Original 216
• Magnodots Black 125
• Magnodots Black 216
• Magnodots Silver 125
• Magnodots Silver 216
• Magnodots Gold 125
• Magnodots Gold 216
• Magnocubes Original 216

According to Health Canada, the recalled Magnet Sets are a danger to human health and safety because they contain small powerful magnets that can be easily swallowed or inhaled by children. Unlike other small objects that would be more likely to pass normally through the digestive system if swallowed, when more than one small powerful magnet is swallowed, the magnets can attract one another while traveling through the digestive system. The Magnets can then pinch together and create a blockage and slowly tear through the intestinal walls, causing perforations.

Health Canada says the results of swallowing small powerful magnets can be very serious and life-threatening. Swallowing incidents have often resulted in considerable damage to the gastrointestinal tissues and required emergency surgical treatment. For survivors, there can be serious long-term health consequences.
