Co2 is used to insufflate laparoscopic cases in the OR.
This could have been staffer error....or a co2 tank could have been accidently or intentionally cracked....
Don't know hoothat could have done much damage in a large ER though

Officials responded to reports of an unknown odor at the hospital at about 11:15 a.m., prompting the evacuation of the emergency department. The fire department said it was dispatched for a carbon monoxide leak.

I find it hard to believe that a hospital has no CO detector.

"Casualty" doesn't mean fatality, just means they were injured or affected by the event.
Someone who loses a leg is considered a casualty of war even if they don't die from the injuries.
