Infant hospitalized after Vitamin D overdose (8,000 X too much)

Omaha, KETV Feb 2016

Transcript indicates that it took months to notice the 8,000X too high of dose

1 dropperful instead of one drop

Somthing strange here. A full dropper contains 15-20 drops

Assuming 400 IU/drop X 8,000 (which is perhaps a full bottle) = 4,300,000 IU daily

Is there even a single ingestable substance which is not deadly at 8000 X in a single day,

    much less 2 months?

Water (8,000 gallons),

Aspirin (40 bottles),

Calories (16 million calories),

Vitamin C (8 kilograms)

etc.
