Pills containing iron supplements for pregnant women
could be fatal for small children, the U.S. Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention have warned. The agency
said iron poisoning is now the most common cause
of child poisoning deaths in the United States.
As few as six pills - usually with a glossy red or
green sugar coating - could be fatal to a child
weighing 22 pounds (10 kilograms) or less.

Mark, I am not disputing this finding. What I dispute is the "RE"
line.

I think that's something you just made up. Do you have evidence to
support the claim?
