Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? These are long, bendy light strips you can stick on walls or ceilings. They come with a small remote that uses coin-shaped batteries.

What's happening? The battery door on the remote can pop open too easily. A child could take out the batteries and swallow them.

Does this affect me? If you have small children at home in Ireland, this product could be dangerous.

What should I do? Stop using the remote right away. Ask your pharmacist or doctor what to do next.
