Due to projected impact of severe weather from Winter Storm Landon on the southern and eastern United States (including major FedEx shipping hubs such as Memphis), we will be delaying some mailout test shipments today and tomorrow (February 2-3, 2022) to avoid damage to specimens from extended delivery transit time.  This will not impact shipments to some reference laboratories unaffected by the storm, principally Mayo Clinic Laboratories.  Pathology mailout staff will stabilize samples and ship when conditions improve for express courier.

Questions should be directed to Matthew Krasowski, MD, PhD, Director of Clinical Laboratories (384-9380, matthew-krasowski@uiowa.edu).
