Subject: CDC needs your input on state, and local pandemic influenza readiness
Dear [Subject Matter Expert Name]:
The 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic underscored the importance of communities being prepared for potential threats to public health security. Because of its unique abilities to respond to infectious, occupational, or environmental incidents, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) plays a pivotal role in ensuring that state, local, and territorial public health systems are prepared for these and other public health incidents. To ensure preparedness in all 62 jurisdictions, your PHEP Director has identified you to complete an assessment of your jurisdiction’s Public Health Emergency Preparedness and Response activities related to Novel Influenza, specifically on Vaccination Planning. Please find the Vaccination Planning Goal outlined below:
Severe Pandemic Vaccine Preparedness Goal:
Given an 8 week notification to begin a national pandemic vaccination campaign, state and local programs will achieve at least an 80% pandemic vaccination coverage for two doses of the pandemic vaccine (separated by 21 days) for their jurisdiction’s population, within 16 weeks from when the vaccine becomes available. (Note: In this scenario, time zero would be a declaration of the start of a national vaccination program. Vaccine would become available two months (8 weeks) after that notification.)
The assessment is available in electronic format by following the distinct assessment link below. Your input to this assessment is critical in helping the program measure jurisdictional readiness to respond to an influenza pandemic and it will assist us in developing guidance and technical assistance strategies to help assist you in your readiness efforts.
