Abstract

A mail survey of all 54 US State and Territorial Public Health Laboratories and the 165 Hospital Clinical Laboratories in Minnesota was carried out, soliciting information on laboratory-acquired infections and injuries for calendar year 1986. The aggregate infection incidence rates were 3.5/1,000 full-time equivalent (FTE) workers for hospital laboratories and 1.43/1,000 for public health laboratories. Injury rates were 21.2/100 FTE workers for hospital laboratories and 7.21/100 for public health labs.
