Anyone who visited this facility after April 9 may have been exposed, particularly if they had contact with the animals or their enclosures, according to the Calgary Zone Medical Officers of Health and AHS Environmental Public Health.
For testing, please ask the patient to submit a stool sample for the stool parasite screen using Associated Precision Laboratories’ microbiology requisition.
