New October Topic: Antibiotics Dispensing in the Event of a Citywide Infectious Disease Emergency
Presenter: Susan Fernyak, MD, MPH, Director, Communicable Disease Control and Prevention Section, San Francisco Department of Public Health
Antibiotics dispensing in the event of a citywide infectious disease emergency such as anthrax will have to be rapid, appropriate and thorough.San Francisco has a proven plan to pull people into dispensing sites and appropriately dispense antibiotics in a period of 36 hours. This plan can be enhanced with help from large businesses that are interested in dispensing antibiotics to their own employees. The presentation of October16 will explain the latest developments in liability protection for businesses interested in becoming "push partners" and update participants in San Francisco's mass prophylaxis preparedness capabilities.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will also be present. CDC is interested in hearing the discussion regarding the pros and the cons about potentially signing on as push partners because the discussion in San Francisco will end up being useful information for mass prophylaxis planners across the country who are reaching out to the business community for dispensing assistance.
