Once again a family storying bleach in a used soda bottle led to a small child ingesting the toxic substance. Ichud Hatzalah reported on Monday 26 Tammuz that an 18-month-old ingested bleach from a soda bottle in the family home on Even Givrol Street in Elad.

EMT Ze’ev Teffer reports that when he arrived the child was conscious and alert. He reminds the tzibur that this case was not serious B”H, but it should serve as a reminder not to store caustic substances in food containers and dangerous cleaners and agents should be stored out of the reach of small children.
