Do you think FEMA was ready for a disaster such as Superstorm Sandy?
What were some of the challenges faced by FEMA with regard to its response to Superstorm Sandy?
How do you feel about the evacuation efforts on the part of several hospitals in the wake of Hurricane Sandy?

Individuals in the public health sector are often called upon to be the first responders within twenty-four hours of a bioterrorist attack. These first responders must take steps to remain safe while doing their jobs. One way to accomplish this is by using Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). However, in some cases, the first responders may not have adequate training to use the PPE correctly. In other cases, the proper PPE may not be readily available in quantities that are required to protect all first responders. On the basis of your understanding of this topic, answer the following questions regarding the above scenario:
What other issues that may occur when using PPE?
What are your suggestions to overcome these issues to ensure that all first responders are safe when responding to a bioterrorist attack? How would you implement these suggestions?
Working with other agencies can often help to gather the manpower necessary to treat an influx of patients. In times of disaster, individuals from these agencies may need to act as traditional first responders. However, in case of an outbreak of Ebola hemorrhagic fever, these individuals may be hesitant to potentially put themselves in danger.
On the basis of your understanding of the topic, answer the following questions:
What fears or reservations may these individuals from other agencies have about acting as traditional first responders?
How would you eliminate these fears in an effort to obtain the man power necessary to treat the influx of patients? Provide suggestions. Be sure to justify your response with factual support.
What would you do if you were unable to eliminate these fears?

How will these similarities and dissimilarities affect the way the two countries plan for a disaster scenario?
