Delta Enterprises has issued a voluntary recall on older versions of its cribs after two infant deaths. According to the company, the cribs were made between 1995 and 2007. The cribs apperantly required safety pegs which may have been lost in reassambly. Delta's web site urges consumers to return them if they were made in China before 2006 and used spring pegs. The dead infants suffocated in their cribs. In one instance, there was no safety peg, and when the crib's side detached, it left a gap that left the infant trapped. The other infant died in a similar fashion when a spring-peg failed to lock and a side detached.
Qin Gang, a spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, said the "the [Chinese] government attaches importance to product quality, especially the quality of products relating to children." This statement seems to provide little reassurance to many, especially in light of the recent melamine poisoning of milk, which got thousands of Chinese children sick.
In conclusion, recalls from products made around the world are becoming increasingly common.
