☆ Recalled Boppy baby pillow linked to 10 infant deaths still widely sold on Facebook Marketplace, regulators say

A recalled baby pillow that's now been linked to at least 10 infant deaths is still being widely sold on Facebook Marketplace, and federal regulators are calling on the company to do more to stop the sales. A series of newborn loungers from The Boppy Company were recalled in September 2021 after eight deaths were linked to the product. Sales of the recalled products — which include the Boppy Original Newborn Lounger, the Boppy Preferred Newborn Lounger and the Pottery Barn Kids Boppy Newborn Lounger — have been illegal for nearly two years. "Far too often, the CPSC has found [recalled] products listed for sale on Facebook Marketplace even after recall information has been provided to your company. By allowing such products to be posted, you are putting Facebook Marketplace users at risk."
