Why it was recalled

Blackout curtains are no longer recommended as a protective barrier against UV/Ozone exposure to a bystander standing in the same room, but on the other side of the curtain from where a microbial reduction device UV cycle is taking place. Bystanders in the room during the cycle may experience temporary skin reddening, feeling of sand in eyes, nausea, headache, and/or mucous membrane irritation.

Class II means using this product may cause temporary or medically reversible health problems; the chance of serious harm is remote.
