Webinar: Federal Support for MCM Development and Delivery

by Global Biodefense Staff
March 24, 2015
Webcast: Interagency Meeting on Immunology of Protection from Ebola

The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR), the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO), and the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO) will host a webinar on March 31, 2015 from 4:00-5:00pm Eastern.

The webinar will discuss community preparedness for a host of national health security threats from Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) agents and emerging infectious diseases in the context of the Public Health Emergency Medical Countermeasures Enterprise (PHEMCE).

The 2014 PHEMCE Strategy and Implementation Plan provides the blueprint the federal government will follow over the next five years to make the best use of available federal resources in this area. The plan addresses the full spectrum of preparedness and response activities from research needs through planning for distribution, dispensing, use, and follow up.

This webinar will provide critical information including:

  • Current available medical countermeasures and federal priorities for future procurement and stockpiling.
  • Information about how the federal government assesses national medical countermeasure preparedness against both intentional and naturally emerging priority threats.
  • Opportunities for state, city, and county health authorities to work with the federal government to develop realistic and actionable medical countermeasure response strategies.

The webinar will be led by Dr. George W. Korch, PhD, Senior Science Advisor to the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and Visiting Professor in the Department of Molecular Microbiology and Immunology, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.

Advance registration is required.
