Recalled Boppy infant lounger linked to multiple deaths and still being sold on Facebook Marketplace.

TL;DR Summary
The Boppy Newborn Lounger, which was recalled in 2021, has been linked to at least 10 infant deaths since 2015. Two more deaths were reported after the recall, bringing the total number of deaths to 10. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is urging consumers to stop using the loungers and asking online marketplaces to crack down on attempts to sell the pillows secondhand. The cause of death was undetermined in one case, while the other was due to positional asphyxia. Parents should stop using the loungers immediately and contact Boppy for a full refund.
