From Seattle Times:The hospitalization of a second child who swallowed small magnets from a popular toy led Public Health — Seattle & King County and Children's Hospital & Regional Medical Center to issue an official warning Thursday about the toy's dangers.
Doctors blamed the Magnetix building toys for the death of a toddler in November and the illness of a 5-year-old boy currently in serious condition at Children's.
The 5-year-old's parents took him to the hospital last week with abdominal pain, vomiting and fever. During surgery, doctors found two small magnets from the Magnetix toys had eroded holes through his intestine.
