Dear Colleagues,
In light of the change in the security situation in Israel over the weekend, we wish to inform centers regarding the registry's operations:
Ezer Mizion BMDR continues to operate as usual.
Our national airport is currently closed to all outgoing commercial flights. We are tracking the flight status daily and are in direct contact with the Israeli airlines and the Ministry of Transportation. Currently, all fresh products are transported with cargo services by Royale International until further notice.
* For ongoing and future Workups, TCs should cryopreserve products for now. Cryopreservation has been approved by our Medical Director until further notice.
* Please check the flight status and the availability of couriers with your courier companies as closely as possible regarding the transport timelines. We highly recommend using the services of
Royal International. We can assist, or you may contact Royale directly yehuda.shlezinger@royaleinternational.com.
* Please note that VT and pre-collection samples are temporarily delayed as FedEx operations are halted for now.
We will keep you updated on any new developments as they arise.
Ezer Mizion BMDR remains dedicated to providing our partners with the best possible service.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need our assistance. You may send your query directly to Yehudit Eitiel - yehudite@bmdr.org.il
