  "summary": "A one-year-old child allegedly lost a finger after a hospital scissors mishap in Bangkok, according to a report by Khaosod English. The incident occurred when a nursing assistant attempted to remove tape securing an IV line, accidentally cutting the child's finger with the scissors. The child had been admitted to the hospital for flu-like symptoms and stayed for 10 nights before the alleged incident. The parent claims that the child experienced severe pain, breathing difficulties, and required mechanical ventilation following the surgery to reattach the finger. The hospital and relevant authorities have yet to provide further information regarding the circumstances of the incident and the measures they will take to address the consequences and support the child and family.",
