Due to the impact of recent severe weather on express shipping (especially the FedEx hub in Memphis), shipping of mailout testing has been delayed. There is large backlog of delayed packages already stuck with express couriers, who are advising holding off on new shipments (especially those that are temperature sensitive) until early next week. Pathology mailout staff will stabilize samples and ship when conditions improve for express courier.
