We do the same at Cincinnati Children's Hospital.   My infectious disease leadership thinks it's still necessary in spite of changing practice.

Subject: [MCOH-EH] serum sample save

Hello everyone,

 

Our office has  collected serum samples  from employees in animal husbandry  and those working with select agents for years.  We have had a recent change in veterinary leadership who is opposed to this, stating that this increases the university’s liability and the practice is outdated.  I am wondering if you could share your policy/experience with me? Thank you for your time.- Jennifer
