Florida IV Fluid Plant Spared From Storm, Company Says
Briefly

B Braun's Daytona Beach plant, crucial for IV fluids, remains operational post-Hurricane Milton, a major relief after Hurricane Helene disrupted supplies nationwide.
As Baxter struggles with supply issues post-Hurricane Helene, B Braun's facility stepped up as a backup, highlighting its importance in maintaining hospital resources.

Baxter usually supplies 60% of U.S. IV fluids, but recent flooding in NC drastically reduced availability, forcing hospitals to ration supplies and cancel surgeries.
