Each year, more than 2 million poisonings are reported to the nation’s poison centers, which can be reached through the toll-free Poison Help line, 1-800-222-1222.
As part of National Poison Prevention Week, <strong>State Rep. John Piscopo</strong> (R-76) is reminding Connecticut residents about the dangers of poisons and how to prevent unintentional poisonings among people of all ages.
