First 'e-cigarette child death': New York baby dies after drinking liquid nicotine
Calls to change way e-cigarettes refills are marketed and bottled in wake of 'tragic accident'
A one-year-old baby has died in New York state after drinking from what is thought to have been an e-cigarette refill bottle, prompting calls to change how the liquid nicotine products are presented.
The death was described by local police as a “tragic accident”, and is thought to be the first to involve a child and e-cigarettes.
An ambulance was called to a home in Fort Plain, New York, to reports of an “unresponsive” child last Tuesday, ABC News reported. He was rushed to hospital, but pronounced dead a short while later.
How very sad.
