        "description": "Urgent TB screening requirement due to the high risk of spread of TB infection identified in a workplace situation, being a fast food outlet with high levels of public throughput.  It is imperative that the identified cohort is tested as soon as possible to reduce risk of wider infection and spread.  This contract is awarded due to an urgent circumstance.\nCurrent service providers for TB screening do not have capacity for community screening of more than 10 patients in any one episode of active TB, consequently blood tests and processing needed to be outsourced. \nThe lifetime value of the contract is £2,976 for screening of all impacted staff on a single day, 26th June 2024. Additional information: Our current service providers for TB do not have capacity for community screening of more than 10 patients in any one episode of active TB.  They can provide clinical support with regards to symptom checking and urgent referrals if necessary but the blood tests and processing need to be outsourced.  The urgency is to the infectious nature of TB and the workplace situation being a fast food outlet with high levels of public throughput.  It is imperative that the identified cohort are tested as soon as possible to reduce risk of wider spread.\nThe provider selected supplies an on request national service for rapid tuberculosis diagnostics via blood test*. They are one of two organisations providing the service, with the other covering only London.  \nClinical recommendation for screening and possible use of this provider from UKSHA.\n*The T-SPOT TB blood test is able to identify latent infections which, if left undiagnosed and untreated, may lead to active disease and further transmission to others.",
