  据美国中文网27日报道,由于万圣节将至,美国多州总检察长在当地时间26日发布警告,希望家长们对大麻产品保持高度警惕,因为它们可能被误认为是普通的糖果和零食。

  据报道,检察机构表示,这些产品中可能含有高浓度的四氢大麻酚(THC),这是一种在大麻中发现的精神活性化合物,如果被儿童误食,可能会导致意外过量。

  报道称,例如,一袋外形与芝士条类似的大麻零食含有600毫克的THC。如果一名儿童食用了一整袋,其所吞噬的剂量将是成人法定最大剂量的120倍。

  美国毒物控制中心协会报告称,仅在2021年上半年,全国毒物控制热线就接到了约2622个与儿童摄入大麻产品有关的电话。

  康涅狄格州总检察长威廉表示,“这些看上去像零食的大麻产品缺乏监管、不安全也不合法。儿童意外过量吸食大麻的事件在全国范围内呈上升趋势,而这些产品只会让情况变得更糟。”

  据介绍,THC过量的症状包括呼吸窘迫、丧失协调性、嗜睡和失去意识等。

加州青少年危机 误食大麻产品求救 4年暴增190%

州总检察长邦塔 吁市民举报

加州总检察长邦塔(Rob Bonta)28日在屋仑男孩女孩俱乐部举行记者会,发布消费者警报,提醒加州市民注意,一些注入大麻的食用产品,被包装成知名流行食品和糖果品牌的山寨版。它们外形酷似Cheetos,Oreos,Doritos,Fruity Pebbles,Sour Patch Kids等,吸引儿童和青少年使用。这些非法、不受监管的食物,可能含有危险的高浓度四氢大麻酚,或剧毒的合成大麻素,对公众健康和安全构成风险。市民不要消费这类山寨品,可进行举报。

酷似知名品牌包装 不受监管

邦塔表示,这些大麻产品,未经监管和测试,由无执照的制造商销售,利用网络或无证商店向加州的未成年人销售。产品往往含有危险的高浓度四氢大麻酚,且可能是用剧毒的合成大麻素制成的。例如,一袋山寨版Doritos,含有600毫克的四氢大麻酚,远远超过法定上限。这些山寨货通过模仿知名品牌,利用有趣的包装和吸引力,引诱未成年人进入非法大麻市场。「年幼的孩子可能不知道,正在摄入什么。对于成年人来说,可能正在消费一种未经测试和未经监管的产品。都是高度危险的。」



大品牌不会销售大麻产品

邦塔说,加州有安全、合法和受监管的大麻市场,重要的是只购买合法产品,并让所有形式的大麻远离儿童。近年来,不幸的是,在摄入大麻食品后需要医院护理的儿童数量上升,有的年仅12岁的孩子,也有意食用。为保护孩子、家庭和社区的安全,大家可做三件事。知道如何识别与知名品牌外观相似的这些大麻产品。了解健康风险。举报非法产品。

邦塔举例说,当涉及到识别外观相似的产品时,要考虑品牌效应。如果看到一个大的糖果或食品品牌,在销售大麻产品,它几乎肯定是非法的山寨产品。没有任何大型的糖果或食品公司生产或销售大麻食用产品或大麻二酚产品。另外,要考虑零售地点。大麻食用品主要在网上或在有执照的商店销售。确保自己只在合法的大麻零售商处购物。另外,还要寻找通用符号。符号为一个加黑三角形,内部有大麻株图形,还有一个感叹号。

邦塔说,在加州,合法的大麻产品必须粘贴这些通用符号,而一些山寨货却在非法使用符号。「如果你没有看到这个通用符号,那么产品就是非法的,可能有危险。」



儿童食用恐呼吸困难、恶心

邦塔说,民众要意识到,非法大麻产品对公众健康和安全构成风险。儿童在摄入大麻食品后会出现各种延迟症状,包括但不限于呼吸困难、昏昏欲睡、头晕、恶心和失去协调能力。用合成大麻素制成的非法产品可能带来额外的健康风险。合成大麻素可能有剧毒,在加州非法。食用合成大麻素的副作用包括心率加快、激动、呕吐、呼吸困难、精神错乱等。

根据检察长办公室的数据,2020年,有1173个电话打到毒物控制中心,要求提供与0到19岁青少年摄入大麻产品有关服务。2016年相关电话只有404个,4年增幅190%。其中,0到5岁儿童,寻求服务的增幅最大。加州与幼儿大麻中毒有关的急诊室就诊人数也在增加。2016年,每100万名0到5岁的儿童中,约有21人就诊。在2020年,大约有113人次。

如果市民怀疑孩子不小心吃了非法大麻产品,可监测症状,致电加州毒物控制中心24小时热线电话,800-222-1222。电话提供超过200种不同语言的翻译,并对内容保密。

邦塔还鼓励市民报告非法产品。市民可登录www.oag.ca.gov/report和大麻控制局https://cannabis.ca.gov/resources/file-complaint/投诉, 或电邮 complaints@cannabis.ca.gov

万圣节来临 大麻糖果流入市面 家长须慎防儿童食用

原标题: 万圣节来临 大麻糖流入市面 伊检察长警告慎防幼童食用

伊州检察长办公室提醒家长留意孩子带回家的万圣节糖果。(pexels)

伊利诺州检察长办公室26日发布警告指出,市面出现多种与Flamin’、Hot Cheetos、Skittles等受欢迎零食外观几乎一模一样的「大麻糖果」,幼童一旦服用将对身体健康造成严重威胁,由于家家户户发放糖果的万圣节来临,检察长办公室呼吁家长,今年务必特别留意查看孩子带回家的零食与糖果。

伊州检察长罗武(Kwame Raoul)说,儿童过量食用大麻的情况,在全美各地都出现增加趋势,尤其外观看起来像糖果的产品,更容易让儿童与青少年误食甚至过量,造成很大的健康风险。

Police warn of marijuana edibles that look like candy ahead of Halloween
Oct 21, 2021

根据全美毒品控制中心协会(American Association of Poison Control Centers)统计,今年前半年全国收到2077件12岁以下孩童食用大麻产品的紧急求救电话,而在2016年时,这类案例全年不过只有153件。

该声明表示,这类大麻糖果几乎都是非法从网络购得,其中很多都含有大麻中主要的精神活性成分-高浓度的四氢大麻酚(THC),他提到,伊州从去年开始允许持有执照的商店贩售大麻产品,也间接推升了大麻黑市需求,这些没有经过核可的销售管道,避开各种法规,提供内含四氢大麻酚(THC)但却包装成知名糖果品牌的商品。



今年5月份时,芝加哥的糖果大厂Wm. Wrigley Jr. Co.就对加州Terphogz提出商标告诉,指控该公司将含有THC成分的产品,刻意模仿Wrigley的产品包装;此外,Wrigley也向多家仿制Skittles、Starburst与Life Savers包装,但实际内含大麻酚的美国、加拿大公司提出诉讼。

检察长办公室称,一般成人在使用含THC的产品时,大约会在5到30分钟内出现如兴奋感、感官知觉变化、增强食欲等心理与生理反应,且会持续数小时。

但若是以食物或饮料的形式摄入大麻后,要等到30分钟到2小时才会有反应,因此不论是成人或孩童,都很容易在还没有意识到误食的状况下就已经食用过量的产品。

此外,同样的剂量,对于12岁以下的儿童来说,会产生更强、更持久的影响,例如儿童大麻中毒最常见的症状,包括过度嗜睡、头晕、缺氧、胸部疼痛、呕吐、呼吸减慢、昏迷等;甚至会对孩童的大脑产生长期不可逆的伤害,影响其注意力、记忆力与学习能力。若多次接触,孩童大麻成瘾的几率也比成年人来的高。

Illinois warns parents against cannabis look-alike treats ahead of Halloween

By ROBERT CHANNICK

10/27/2021

The Illinois attorney general’s office issued a warning Tuesday to be extra careful about which treats end up in your child’s hands this Halloween — they could be a cannabis edible look-alike that will impart more than a sugar high.

Bensalem police warn parents to be on alert during Halloween for possible cannabis candies
Sep 28, 2021

The potentially illicit cannabis edibles, which mimic everything from Flamin’ Hot Cheetos to Skittles, are sold online and may contain high concentrations of THC, the main psychoactive chemical in marijuana. That could pose a serious threat to children if consumed, the attorney general’s office said.

“Accidental cannabis overdoses by children are increasing nationwide, and these look-alike products will only exacerbate the danger by appealing to children and youth,” Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul said in a news release.



During the first half of 2021, the American Association of Poison Control Centers, a nonprofit organization representing 55 centers across the U.S., reported 2,077 emergency calls related to children 12 and under ingesting cannabis products. There were 153 such incidents reported during all of 2016, according to association data.

While Illinois regulates legal cannabis edibles sold through licensed dispensaries, a booming black market may skirt both state regulations and intellectual property laws, offering products that are packaged like well-known candies and snacks, but pack the extra punch of THC.

In May, Chicago-based candy giant Wm. Wrigley Jr. Co. filed a trademark infringement lawsuit against Terphogz, a California company that produces Zkittlez. The suit alleges the cannabis-infused candies are meant to “cause confusion” with Wrigley’s Skittles brand and pose a danger to children. That case is ongoing in Chicago federal court.



Wrigley also sued four other companies in the U.S. and Canada for selling cannabis-infused edibles branded to resemble Skittles, Starburst and Life Savers.

Similar trademark infringement lawsuits have been filed in recent years against cannabis-infused products resembling Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Sour Patch Kids and Nerds Rope candy.

The attorney general’s office warned that cannabis edibles sold outside of Illinois’ regulated market may have much higher levels of THC. In Illinois, legal edible products may contain up to 10 milligrams of THC per adult serving, with no more than 100 milligrams of THC in the package.

The attorney general said a single bag of look-alike Cheetos can contain 600 milligrams of THC. If a child were to eat the entire bag, they would be consuming 60 times the maximum legal adult serving in Illinois.



A variety of cannabis-infused Flamin’ Hot Cheetos look-alike products is marketed online. Frito-Lay, which makes Cheetos, does not offer cannabis edibles.

Jason Erkes, spokesman for Chicago-based Cresco Labs, a large multistate cannabis operator that owns 10 Sunnyside retail dispensaries and three cultivation centers in Illinois, said the company’s edible products would never be confused with candy intended for children.

“The stuff we sell is appropriately packaged and branded, and in child safety sealed containers, with very clear labeling that this is a medicated cannabis product,” Erkes said. “When you’re buying something on the illicit market, or from a source that isn’t reputable, you’re not going to have those safeguards in place.”



Erkes questioned the likelihood that cannabis edibles would intentionally end up in Halloween bags, if only because of the prohibitive cost of filling up a candy bowl for trick-or-treaters.

“You’re paying $40 or $50 for a 100 milligram pack of 10 edibles, versus $2.99 for a package of candy,” Erkes said.

Recreational marijuana was legalized in Illinois in January 2020. Total sales reached $1.03 billion last year, including $669 million in recreational weed and more than $366 million in medical sales, according to the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation.

The state’s marijuana revenue pace has accelerated this year, with nearly $1.3 billion in total sales through September, including $997 million in recreational cannabis products.

The consumption of “Real Water” brand alkaline water is the only common link identified among all of these cases to date. This brand of alkaline water is owned by Real Water Inc., headquartered in Mesa, Arizona.

As this outbreak investigation continues, the FDA will provide additional updates to this advisory as more information becomes available.



Recommendations

Consumers, restaurants, and retailers should not drink, cook with, sell, or serve “Real Water” alkaline water, until more information is known about the cause of the illnesses. These products include but are not limited to: 5-gallon containers (sold through home delivery/subscription), bottles (sold on-line and in stores), and the “Real Water” concentrate (sold on-line).

美回收10万磅大陆火锅底料 致命成分曝光了

问题产品已被运至亚利桑那州、加州、夏威夷州、内华达州、纽约州与德州业者

2021/02/25   维加斯新闻报

      (综合报导)据美国国家广播公司报导,美国农业部食品安全检疫处(Food Safety and Inspection Service, FSIS)22日宣布发现大陆名扬火锅底料中的10万磅的牛油是从大陆非法进口,并称这种成分合理可能会导致严重与负面的健康后果、甚至死亡,已下令回收并要求零售与餐厅业者丢掉或办理退款。


      报导引述美国农业部(USDA)官网指出,由于大陆并非美方认定的牛肉生产国,其牛油没有经过FSIS的复检。而加州贸易公司GLG Trading在检验时,发现名扬火锅底料的中辣、微辣与特辣等3种口味产品中含有牛油成分,FSIS表示该产品上没有联邦检验标志。GLG Trading将负责回收9万6810磅火锅底料。


      报导称,目前没有食用后引发不适的消息传出,不过FSIS表示,有这种产品的人应丢弃,或办理退货退费。目前这些产品已被运至亚利桑那州、加州、夏威夷州、内华达州、纽约州与德州的零售业者与餐厅。


      USDA在官网指出此次的火锅底料回收是最为严重的一级回收,意味该牛油「将导致危害健康的情况,使用此产品有合理可能性会导致严重与负面的健康后果,甚至是死亡」。
