Question

2) What should you do now?

Prior to these media reports, Lizzie buys an Ivan's Peanut Butter Delight Candy Bar at

her local ELF Mart and allows it as a treat for her five-year-old daughter, Amy. That

night, Amy becomes quite ill with symptoms that look very much like ethylene glycol

toxicity. Doctors initially think she has stomach flu and treat her with Tylenol and fluids.

Amy's condition worsens, and she experiences a small seizure. After consultation with a

medical toxicologist, treatment changes are instituted. Amy ultimately recovers but while

she is ill, Lizzie misses a week of work and is fired from her job. Assume that her firing is

consistent with the "employment at will" philosophy that undergirds work policy in the

United States. Additionally, the medical bills exceed insurance coverage.
