There is also a backlog for getting Tubersol now due to the Aplisol shortage.

 

 

 

 

We offer Tubersol versus the Aplisol (shortage).  We still do annual testing and new hire 2 step testing per NYS DOH regulations.

Subject: {EXTERNAL} [MCOH-EH] TB test shortage

 

I am wondering how the group will be handling the TST shortage for various clients, especially healthcare facilities and OSHA required testing.
