Vaccines Delayed Due to Shortage
Sharp Rees-Stealy has informed TSRI that there is a nation-wide shortage
of various vaccines and medical testing supplies due to the recent needs
of the military. Therefore, they will not have any vaccines (Hepatitis
B, Hepatitis A, tetanus, etc.) or TB testing available at the onsite clinics
or at Sharp Rees-Stealy Medical Center Occupational Medicine Program for
about six weeks. Environmental Health & Safety will let you know when
the vaccines and TB testing will be available. Serum draws and titers
are available as usual. Health care professionals at Sharp note that this
slight delay in scheduling of the vaccine series will not be a problem
for those being vaccinated. Please call the Biosafety Office at x4-8240
with any questions.
