[Histonet] Tuberculosis positive tissue

[Kim Donadio]

If your in a hospital: I've always had it verified with the microbiology department if it hasn't been done already(if not then still the following) Then it needs to be reported to your local department of health and the CDC since it is a reportable disease. I'm sure others can expand on this but this is what I've had to do.
