Thank you. I wonder if it is wise to have 60% of all IV and peritoneal fluids manufactured at only 1 plant. Happy to know that hospitals will be able to produce some fluids to help mitigate shortages. This is déjà vu (all over again); there were COVID vaccine shortages due to glass vial shortages. Isn’t there something about not putting all your vials or IV bags in ONE basket? Wonder what else shouldn’t be in there?
Can't believe we are so vulnerable. Maybe make the stuff in more than one location? Take the private sector incentives out of the supply chain?
Thank you for update 😊😊
Is there any kind of dashboard where we can follow the iv fluid shortage and its recovery?
