AIIMS bars company for two years over IV fluid contamination
In short
AIIMS said on September 22 that a company’s IV fluids had repeated contamination complaints. It then banned the company for two years.
The move matters because hospitals need clean and safe supplies. The report says the complaints continued even after earlier warnings, but it does not name the company or say which batches were affected.
