Magnetic Chess Games
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
The recalled magnetic chess games violate the mandatory standard for toys because they contain loose magnets posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract each other, or other metal objects, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting, and/or blockage of the intestines, blood poisoning and death.
The Recall Registry rates this highest risk — Swallowed magnets can cause life-threatening internal injury.
