I had a TB test years ago, when I took a CNA training course. Â It was a sort of scratch test, if I remember correctly (or maybe a subcutaneous injection? Â I don't really remember). Â I am planning to do another similar training soon, and one of the requirements is a TB test. Â I just looked at the recommended website for the county health dept., and they refer to the test as a shot. Â Can anyone give me some information about how the test is currently administered, and/or whether or not there are other alternatives if it does involve an injection? Â I am opposed to inoculations for myself and my family, and I'm just starting to sort through how to approach that or reconcile my beliefs with my chosen career path. Â
Â
If anyone has any information about vax exemptions for healthcare workers, I'd really appreciate that, too.
Â
Thanks!Â
