For those of you who are not familiar with thetransport of MF kits - they
are transported in one of two ways--
1. stores distributor-- FishMart is the east coast unless things have
recently changed--
2. They are shipped direct via plane from NY to closest airport where
retailer makes pick up. Thoise shipped direct - usually in quantities of
12 or more are direct ships- and they do not get exposure to others-- those
from the distributor can get exposed as they pool ferrets-- not always can
they get all from MF-- this has been the case in past years. So-- depending
on the store particular method of supply it is possible the kit was exposed
througha distributorship method-- if the store had a large quantity and got
them direct -- then I suspect it is a good point to make that the problem
originated at the point of departure---
I don't have the answer-- but here is a tool for research.
