Description:

Personnel must be trained to pack and ship suspected or confirmed SARS-CoV-2 specimens according to the regulations and in a manner that corresponds to their function-specific responsibilities. This job aid is not a substitute for the required training to pack and ship infectious substances, but instead serves as a quick reference guide adapted from the CDC Laboratory Training course Packing and Shipping Dangerous Goods: What the Laboratory Staff Must Know.
