🚭 Secondhand smoke poses a severe threat to young children.
It's accountable for 150,000 to 300,000 lower respiratory tract infections annually in kids under 18 months, leading to 7,500 to 15,000 hospitalizations yearly.
Additionally, it causes 430 sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) deaths in the U.S. each year. 🚼💔

Poisonous Death Cap (Amanita phalloides) and Western Destroying Angel (Amanita ocreata) mushrooms are continuing to grow in California, including in areas where they are normally not found.

These poisonous wild mushrooms can look and taste like safe-to-eat mushrooms. Just one bite can lead to hospitalization, a liver transplant and even death.

Mushroom hunters and foragers face serious risk. California is experiencing a record-breaking outbreak of severe illness and deaths linked to people accidentally eating these poisonous wild mushrooms.

If you or someone you know may have eaten a poisonous wild mushroom:
- Immediately seek medical care.
- Call the Poison Control hotline: 1-800-222-1222.
