EE was collecting a rock sample and slid right hand down a metal railing. EE felt something poke EE's wrist but the railing looked fine. It seemed EE got a metal sliver. EE did not report it because it was not serious. On 10/7/2021, EE reported the injury for the first time and said it was infected and needed to be removed.
