A Birmingham based pharmaceutical company, Meds IV, recalled an intravenous (IV) nutritional solution on March 24, after the fluid had been linked to bacterial infections in Alabama hospitals. The contaminated IV fluid is indicated as a possible factor in at least 9 deaths and 10 injuries. In this video, Beasley Allen Founding Shareholder Jere L. Beasley tells WAFF 48 News in Huntsville that he hopes the outbreak is not larger than we think. His concern arises from the fact the IV product was put into the marketplace in January, but not recalled until the end of March.
