Medical giant Cardinal Health has raised the alarm over nearly 400 lots of its widely-used Webcol Large Alcohol Prep Pads, which contain 70 percent isopropyl alcohol. Tests revealed the wipes may be contaminated with Paenibacillus phoenicis, a hard-to-kill bacteria that is resistant to most cleaning agents with the potential to trigger a deadly blood infection.
