Full Tyvek suit, PAPR, gloves and safety glasses are required. This particular employee is not a product manufacturing employee and therefore was unaware of the updated PPE requirements. Further training and communication has been provided to employees to ensure everyone is aware of current PPE requirements. Employee had minor symptoms that lasted for approximately one day and has had no further complications. No lost time from work was reported. Employee has been informed of the proper PPE's to be worn.
