Cribs Recalled After Infant Death
More than 400,000 drop-side cribs made by Simplicity were recalled July 2 after an 8-month-old child in Houston suffocated. The Chinese-made cribs had a detachable side that easily broke, creating a gap between the side of the crib and the mattress where a child could potentially become trapped and suffocate. It wasn't Simplicity's first snafu with the cribs. In September 2008, the company recalled 600,000 cribs of the same type; in 2007 a million older-model cribs were recalled after two children became trapped and suffocated. In an interview on The Early Show, Consumer Product Safety Commission chairman Inez Tenenbaum said, "We have recalled 2 million of these in the past few years because the company would change the hardware, but it never worked."
婴儿床在出现幼儿死亡之后被召回
超过40万张由Simplicity公司生产的下拉式围栏婴儿床在6月2号一位在休斯顿的幼儿窒息而死后被召回。这种中国制造的婴儿床有一可拆开的边非常容易损坏，会在车的边缘和床垫之间产生缝隙，而这缝隙可能卡住孩子并有窒息的危险。这并不是Simplicity第一次因为婴儿床而被推上风口浪尖了。早在2008年的9月公司召回了60万张同款婴儿床；而2007年有100张老款婴儿床因为两个儿童被卡住并窒息而宣布召回。在访谈节目《The Early Show》中，消费者产品安全委员会主席Inez Tenenbaum说道：“我们在过去的几年因为公司希望会对床的硬件进行更换已经召回了200万张婴儿床，但却从没起到什么作用。”
