Washington DC -- The deadly meningitis outbreak that has been linked to contaminated pain medicine (steroids) was tied to mold and bacteria growing in the supposed "sterile" rooms. These conditions have prompted calls for tighter federal regulation of compounding pharmacies, which have periodically been blamed for crippling and sometimes fatal injuries. In the past, Congress has pushed for more authority over the industry. During the 1990s, compounding pharmacies fought overlapping laws...

The report was funded by the California Air Resources Board and examined 40 day care centers in Alameda and Monterey counties. Researchers from the university's Center for Environmental Research and Children's Health examined indoor air quality and floor dust samples.
