Now this calls for a Malpractice Suit

Workers at Durham Regional Hospital and Duke Health Raleigh Hospital washed surgical instruments in hydraulic fluid? Now this is a real screw up:

The hydraulic fluid came from a hospital parking garage where workers had drained it into empty soap containers while working on an elevator, then packaged it on a pallet. The containers were sent back to the distributor and then reshipped to the hospitals when soap was ordered.

You figure hydraulic fluid would smell and look different then soap but I guess the doctors where in a rush to clean the instruments. In any case this just made a swarm of lawyers roll up into a massive ball like the squiddies in the Matrix and descend on North Carolina
