Transportation of infectious materials is governed by strict national and international rules including guidelines from the Department of Transportation and the International Air Transport Authority (IATA). All biological samples that are potentially infectious are packed, shipped, and transported by authorized individuals. BUMC is notified in advance that a shipment is expected and when it has arrived.
