    Thailand - Child safety - batteries which look like lollies

    The dangers of button batteries


    Small lithium button batteries are causing up to 20 children to be hospitalised in Australia each week.

    I'm sure it's a danger here in Thailand also.

    AO ... what on Earth are you on about?

    This thread is almost 2 years old ... you are the first reply.

    You know me ... well, I thought.

    The News source is the Australian Government's news service.

    I'll assume you're taking the piss

    AO ...

    The way they get used everywhere here, these batteries are a serious risk to all Thai children. My guess is that many have already died as a result of eating them but were never diagnosed....."just died".

    Recently my wife returned to visit family and I told her to warn them...there are young children there and the parents really don't have a clue about how dangerous these batteries are.
