The purpose of this tool is to assist in identifying gaps and creating awareness of best practices for waste management processes in VL and EID molecular testing laboratories (and associated healthcare facilities), in order to provide a starting point for assistance in waste mitigation strategies. This tool is for completion by site managers, safety managers, waste management professionals and/or environmental protection personnel to aid them in making decisions about how the assessed site can develop and implement best practices for their location. It was developed by ASLM, CDC ILB, the Global Fund, in collaboration with the Integrated Diagnostics Consortium.
