    Gray baby syndrome is a rare, life-threatening adverse reaction that occurs in newborns and premature infants due to toxicity from the antibiotic Chloramphenicol.

    The baby metabolism can't process a particular antibiotic properly, which (depending on the accrued concentration) causes cell damage in liver, bones and cardiac muscles. As a result, the baby may suffer low blood pressure, kidney or liver failure, jaundice, brain damage and will die, if it's not caught and treated early.

    It's what happens when Republicans get to "Protect" Our children.
