  1. If you work with materials of human source, including human cell lines, you will also need to submit Hepatitis B documentation:

 

The Hepatitis B vaccine consists of three doses, and 1 titer to test for antibodies.

  • If the individual has completed the vaccination (three doses and titer) from an outside source, they may provide documentation from that source.
  • If the individual needs to complete the vaccination, the vaccine can be obtained from Employee Health/Occupational Injury Management.
  • If the individual does not wish to receive the vaccination, or if they have received the vaccination previously and are unable to provide documentation, they must complete the Immunization Review Form: http://www.ehso.emory.edu/content-forms/Hepatitis-B-Immunization-Review_Declination-Form.dot

 

Please send documentation to biosafe@emory.edu
