For your TB skin test, two appointments will be set up. Two appointments, separated by 48–72 hours, are necessary for this test.

We will inquire about any vaccinations you may have received within four weeks of your scheduled TB test when you make your appointment. We will schedule your visit for one month after you had one of the following immunizations: MMR (measles/mumps/rubella), varicella (chickenpox), shingles vaccine (Zostavax), and yellow fever.

You will need to bring:

• Paperwork from your school or employer listing the vaccinations your require
• BC Care Card (if you have one)
• Your vaccination records

You can try requesting information about your vaccination history from a family member, your doctor, or the clinic where you received your childhood immunizations. If it is not possible to obtain this information, we will administer the vaccinations required for your job or school. We may also suggest that you get a blood test to learn more about your medical and vaccination history.

 To find the ideal strategy for you, you must set up a meeting. One of our nurses will analyze your medical history and propose the best course of action at your consultation to make sure you are ready for work or school. The nurse will suggest whether it would be ideal for you to get the shots during your visit or whether a lab request for a blood test should be given instead. You can learn about your immunization and disease histories through a blood test.

You shouldn't get the test if any of the following apply to you:

• Previous allergic reaction, severe reaction (such as blistering), or allergy to any Tubersol component
• Proof of an earlier positive TST result
• Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRAs) reacted in the past (TB blood test)
• LTBI or prior active TB illness
