A safety transport box is provided with an inner enclosure configured for releasably engaging specimen collection equipment. The safety transport box further includes an outer enclosure for protectively enclosing the inner enclosure. The inner and outer enclosures are spaced from one another for preventing contact related damage to the specimen collection equipment. Both the inner and outer enclosures are selectively openable for accessing the specimen collection equipment.

1. A safety transport box comprising: an inner enclosure having an inner base and an inner cover removably mounted to said inner base, said inner base including support means for removably mounting specimen collection equipment, said inner base comprising a side wall enclosure formed from a rigid material and an elastomeric support for providing a watertight sealing between said inner base and said inner cover and for resiliently supporting said specimen collection equipment, said safety transport box further comprising an outer enclosure protectively surrounding said inner enclosure, said outer enclosure including at least one outer cover for selectively opening said outer enclosure and accessing said inner enclosure.2. The safety transport box of claim 1, wherein the said elastomeric support further comprises at least one opening configured and dimensioned for resiliently engaging said specimen collection equipment.3. The safety transport box of claim 2, wherein said elastomeric support further comprises a projection for telescoped engagement with an element of said specimen collection equipment having an open tubular configuration.4. A safety transport box comprising: an inner enclosure having an inner base and an inner cover removably mounted to said inner base, said inner base including support means for removably mounting specimen collection equipment, said safety transport box further comprising an outer enclosure protectively surrounding said inner enclosure, said outer enclosure including at least one outer cover for selectively opening said outer enclosure and accessing said inner enclosure, the inner enclosure further comprising at least one hydrophobic filter extending through said inner enclosure to permit equalization of air pressure between said inner enclosure and said outer enclosure while preventing leakage of fluid from said inner enclosure to said outer enclosure.5. The safety transport box of claim 4, wherein said inner cover includes a side wall enclosure, a closed top and an open bottom, said inner cover being configured for telescoped substantially waterproof engagement with said inner base.6. The safety transport box of claim 5, wherein said inner cover comprises a plurality of inner surfaces, at least one of said inner surfaces having an absorbent layer for absorbing fluid spilled in said inner enclosure.7. The safety transport box of claim 6, where said inner cover includes at least one receptacle configured for releasably engaging a needle assembly.8. A safety transport box comprising: an inner enclosure having an inner base and an inner cover removably mounted to said inner base, said inner base including support means for removably mounting specimen collection equipment, said safety transport box further comprising an outer enclosure protectively surrounding said inner enclosure, said outer enclosure including an outer base and at least one outer cover for selectively opening said outer enclosure and accessing said inner enclosure, said inner base is being formed unitarily with said outer base.9. A safety transport box comprising: an inner enclosure having an inner base and an inner cover removably mounted to said inner base, said inner base including support means for removably mounting specimen collection equipment, said safety transport box further comprising an outer enclosure protectively surrounding said inner enclosure, said outer enclosure including an outer base and at least one outer cover for selectively opening said outer enclosure and accessing said inner enclosure, said outer cover including front and rear outer shells hingedly connected to said outer base and selectively closeable around said inner enclosure.10. The safety transport box of claim 9, wherein said front and rear outer shells are formed unitarily with said outer base.11. The safety transport box of claim 9, wherein said front and rear outer shells include locking means for releasably locking said front and rear outer shells around said inner enclosure.12. The safety transport box of claim 9, wherein said front and rear outer shells include inner surfaces, the inner surface of at least one of said front and rear shells being formed with at least one channel for releasably receiving sheet material.13. A safety transport box comprising an inner base with an upwardly open rigid side wall, an elastomeric support mounted to said side wall of said inner base, said elastomeric support including at least one opening for releasably engaging a specimen collection container; an inner cover having a plurality of interconnected side walls, a top wall and an open bottom, said inner cover being releasably mounted to said inner base for selectively enclosing and protecting a specimen collection container engaged by said elastomeric support; at least one hydrophobic filter mounted in and extending through said inner cover for substantially equalizing pressure across said inner cover; an upwardly concave outer base engaged With said inner base, front and rear shells hinged to said outer base and rotatable relative to said outer base from an open position where said inner cover and said inner base are accessible and a closed position where said front and rear shells are in surrounding spaced relationship to said inner cover.14. The safety transport box of claim 13, wherein said elastomeric support is configured for watertight engagement with both said inner base and said inner cover for preventing leakage of specimens supported between said inner cover and said inner base.15. The safety transport box of claim 13, wherein said front and rear shells are unitary with said outer base.16. The safety transport box of claim 13, wherein said inner and outer base, said front and rear shells and said inner cover are formed from a rigid thermoplastic material.17. The safety transport box of claim 13, wherein said inner cover further comprises means for releasably engaging a needle assembly.18. The safety transport box of claim 13, wherein said elastomeric support comprises a support projection for releasably engaging a generally tubular needle holder.
