    If you read the article you will see that its stated in a situation where antisepctic and epidural solution are needed it is hospital policy pretty much everywhere to draw the liquid STRAIGHT FROM THE SOURCE ie bottle or whatever, not have them both in dishes for exactly this reason.

    Gosh even in my vet clinic we draw up everything straight into a syringe, and then it gets labelled straight away so everyone knows what's in the syringe. I can't believe that a mistake on this magnitude was ever made!!
