Yes, that's an accepted response for minor phosgene exposure. Lest
you think that Trike is nasty when burned, consider that almost any
chlorinated hydrocarbon as well as most chlorinated plastics such as
PVC will produce phosgene when burned. That's also one of the
reasons that flame refrigerant leak detectors are no longer used--
burning (actually decomposing) Freon in a hot flame produces
phosgene.
