Do any of you have a current policy concerning the handling of
specimens suspected of infection with select agents in your lab?  By
select agents, I mean anthrax, avian flu, tularemia, etc. as defined by
the CDC.  I am currently in the process of drafting a policy for the
clinical lab here at St Jude, and if someone already has one in place
that they would be willing to share, I would greatly appreciate it.
