High amounts of lead can harm the nervous system, kidneys and other major organs. Anemia, a decline in red blood cells, can occur, as well as damage to the nervous system that may impair mental function. Lead poisoning can also cause seizures or death.

No adverse health effects associated with any of the products have been reported.

On Tuesday, Consumer Reports said testing showed unsafe levels of lead were found in toys, dishware, jewelry and backpacks that have not been recalled by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. In recent months, U.S. and Canadian officials have issued a series of recalls of made-in-China toys for safety problems involving lead levels.
