[MCOH-EH] Blood exposures

[Betty Rapaski]

Hi
Guidelines for exposure is located in the OSHA blood borne pathogen exposures. 
We only test employees if the sources is positive for HIV, HCV, HB. The HIV results is obtained within 2 hours of exposure. The HB antigen and HCV results are obtained within 48-72 hours.

Cannot find direction on this in either OSHA sources or CDC so if anyone can cite the location that would be helpful. Thanks for any help,
