NIOSH Funded Survey of Occupational Safety and MRSA in US Swine Veterinarians

Dr. Peter Davies at the University of Minnesota is leading a NIOSH funded study of occupational safety in US swine veterinarians, including a long term study of Staphylococcus aureus and MRSA that includes two components.

  1. 68 AASV members have volunteered for an 18 month study of nasal colonization with S. aureus
  2. A broader survey of occupational health and safety in US swine veterinarians, similar to a study last done in 1995.

The survey will be conducted on-line using Survey Monkey. The target population is US swine veterinarians who will be contacted via email and invited to participate via a link in the message.

If selected, you can help contribute to better information about health and safety in our profession by responding to the on-line survey link in to be circulated in late July. We expect survey completion will require 10 – 20 minutes of your time.
