Sommario/riassunto |
|
The committee was established in the autumn of 2000 to study the feasibility of expanding the Metropolitan Medical Strike Team model established in Washington, DC and neighboring counties into a national program to respond to a mass-casualty terrorism incident. The attacks of September 2001 accelerated their effort and moved it from more theoretical to more concrete realms. The report is not indexed. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR |
