Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show

Trainees at the IAEA Seibersdorf Laboratories identify and label samples in a 2016 Zika training course.
Last week, D.C.’s public health lab revealed they had mishandled hundreds of Zika tests, including those of at least 9 pregnant women who were erroneously told they were negative for Zika. Now federal health officials are auditing the lab, and Tuesday the D.C. Council held a hearing on the matter. We explore what went wrong and what officials are doing to address the issues.
