INFORMATION ABOUT
CARBON MONOXIDE:
General Carbon Monoxide Information:
Carbon monoxide (CO) is known as the ‘silent
killer’ because it is odourless, tasteless and
colourless. It can kill in only a few minutes.
All people are at risk of CO poisoning.
Unborn babies, infants and children, the
elderly, people with chronic heart disease,
anaemia, or respiratory problems are generally
more at risk than others.
Breathing CO can cause headache, dizziness,
vomiting, and nausea. If CO levels are high
enough, you may become unconscious or die.
