사건의 원인 

=========

1. 애엄마와 Costa 직원과의 소통 부족 (두유가 아닌 우유를 집어 넣음); 딸은 severe dairy allergy.

     -> 치과 진료 중 아나필락시스 발생 -> 근처 약국에 소아용 EpiPen을 사용했지만, 끝내 사망

2. 애엄마와 본인이 사고 당시 처방받은 EpiPen을 휴대하고 있지 않았음.

 

사건의 대책 

=========

1. food service industry and medical professionals are required to have allergy training,

    this training is really not taken seriously enough.

     --> tick-box excerise에 대해서도 언급하고 있는데, 실효성은 떨어진다.

원문에 보면 대책은 training인데, 임시대책일 뿐이며, 본인의 목숨을 지키기 위해서는,

집에서 모든 것을 스스로 만들어서 먹어야 된다. 안타깝지만 누구를 비난하거나 문제의 원인에 대해서

아무리 이야기해도, 딸의 목숨은 되돌아 오지 않는다.
