CNN: Illinois reports significant increase in calls to poison control in the last two days

There has been a significant increase in calls to poison control in the state of Illinois in the last two days, Illinois Public Health Director Dr. Ngozi Ezike said during a Saturday afternoon press conference.

Such calls included someone using a detergent based solution for a sinus rinse and another person gargling with a bleach and mouthwash mixture to kill germs, Ezike said.

She urged people to not use cleaning chemicals to try and kill the virus.

1. Just wow.

I thought every parent who has had a toddler had common sense enough to know what POISON is. That's why you keep certain POISONS, (warning: do not ingest) locked up and out of the way when they are toddling around.

So, considering that, what I am saying is that I certainly hope these people that have no common sense about POISON are not parents because that's like parenting 101.
