The University of Vermont Medical Center will keep the operating rooms at its Fanny Allen campus closed through January as it continues to investigate the cause of mysterious odors, according to an article on the Burlington Free Press website.
There were two "air quality incidents" in October and November which led to the closure of the operating rooms in December.
The Green Mountain Surgery Center in Colchester offered operating room time to the hospital to help it deal with rescheduling surgeries in December.
The hospital said extensive testing both internally and by outside consultants and the State of Vermont has not revealed a cause for the odors in the operating rooms.
