Family joins Seattle Children's lawsuit after infant infected with Aspergillus
Another family whose infant daughter was infected with Aspergillus joined a class-action lawsuit against Seattle Children's hospital on Wednesday.
The class-action lawsuit was initially filed against Seattle Children’s in December, claiming the hospital knew its air-handling system could cause Aspergillus mold to be transmitted and failed to properly maintain the system.
Aspergillus is a common mold that can cause infection in patients with a compromised immune system.
Elizabeth "Beth" Hutt was transferred to Seattle Children’s the day after she was born at Tacoma General with congenital heart failure, according to her parents Katie and Micah Hutt of Lacey.
