Subject: [migrant_health_research] Poison Ivy

 

Hello Everyone,

I recently received the following question and I am not sure what the answer is.  I am hoping some of you might have an idea.  Thanks for the help.

"Is poison ivy considered an occupational disease for farmworkers? Does you know of a mechanism in place to report it?"
