Wisconsin's shortage of IV bags continues months after Hurricane Maria slowed their production in Puerto Rico. Ann Zenk of the Wisconsin Hospitals Association delivers an update on how the state's hospitals are able to cope with the shortage. The FDA's approval of manufacturers outside of Puerto Rico helps, Zenk says, but state hospitals still share supplies with each other if one falls short.
