I found these in the drugs locker today. They were given to us by the Irish government four years ago. Are these given out in other countries?

They were part of the fear mongering leading up to the Iraq invasion. I remember them being in the news here but I don’t know how widely they were distributed.

Check with you doctor before you even consider! I feel a little uneasy it just showed up out of nowhere.

The packet was at the back of the locker underneath the bandages. I do remember us receiving it in the post!

The Irish Government was, and still is, worried about Sellafield, a huge nuclear reprocessing plant lying on the west coast of Britain in northern England. Apparently if it blows up like Chernobyl, all the nuclear debris will float over Ireland. The Irish believe terrorists will target it.

Similar to this, I imagine.
