ABSTRACT
First of all, it is a good idea to contact carriers, which take the responsibility as shippers to transport dangerous goods, e.g., World Courier (https://www.worldcourier.com/) and Marken (https://www.marken.com/) to nd out if and from where they can provide transportation services. The next question to be solved is if there is a local source of dry ice. Consider the shipper, hospitals, universities, breweries (carbonation of drinks is often performed using dry ice), and companies using dry ice blasting machines. To nd these companies, contact dry ice providers (https://www.dryicedirectory.com/; https://www.yara.com/products_services/industrial_solutions/ carbon_dioxide_dry_ice/industrial_processes/blast_cleaning.aspx). You should have an initial set of transport boxes as described below to be able to send your samples, as local transport from the outbreak site to an airport will mostly be entirely dependent on them.
