SUMMARY:Vector-Borne Outbreaks: Emergency Prep Tabletop
DESCRIPTION:Mapping Community Outbreaks of Four Major Mosquito Viruses:\nHow Ready Are You? Your community? \nEmergency preparedness comes in many forms; however\, when it comes to outbreaks of Dengue Fever\, Eastern Equine Encephalitis\, or Chikungunya\, the reaction by a community needs to be more holistic – are you ready? West Nile virus has been present in TX for many years; however\, as it circulates\, it is important to consider how your community is handling those mosquitoes in your high-risk areas. How ready are you and your community for the next invasive disease? \nThis one-day tabletop exercise will educate attendees about arboviral diseases and discuss the process for involving state and regional stakeholders should a coordinated response to an outbreak be needed. Scenarios will focus on potential arboviral disease outbreaks specific to the North Texas region. \nThis class will include morning lectures\, a boxed lunch\, and an afternoon session of small-group exercises on specific outbreak cases based on AMCA and TMCA guidance. The three afternoon sessions will have class participants discuss and walk through Discovery\, Investigation\, and Response with a final discussion with concluding thoughts at the end of the program. \nThis workshop is open to anyone interested in vector-borne diseases\, emergency preparedness\, One Health initiatives\, and environmental health specialists in all settings. \nRegistration is required. Lunch is provided.
