Opposition to new proposal due to it's redundant nature with current training
 

I am opposed to the BOD current proposal for redundant training in infection control for dental assistants in NOIRA Action 505. I believe the current Virginia regulations for infection control training thru CDC and OSHA guidelines are sufficient and further requirements by the BOD would be unnecessary due to the redundant nature.
