Infectious Substance Transportation and Shipping Practices

Sandia National Laboratories is working with the University of Maidiguri to develop low cost, locally made, sustainable, safe and secure packaging for the transport of infectious substances in Nigeria. These packages will be able to be constructed from materials that are readily available in Nigerian markets. Package designs will be tested to meet international standards for infectious substance packaging. Instructions and details of how to assemble these packages will be distributed to all participants of this survey.

In order to be successful, we need to gather information about current infectious substance transportation and shipping practices throughout Nigeria.

Kindly fill out the survey to best of your knowledge and experience. This survey is meant to address institutional shipping practices. Part I is about your personal experience and knowledge. Part II and III should be answered for your institution (not yourself personally or your specific laboratory).
