WMD, Emergency Management and
Medical Web Sites
1. The following is intended to provide a comprehensive list of
internet sites of use for emergency planning and in particular Weapons of Mass
Destruction (WMD) and medical emergency planning. To be useful as a working document, the listing is divided into the following categories:
·
Organizations
·
Local Emergency
Management/BT/Health/WMD web sites
·
References
Agricultural and Animal Issues
Decontamination
Diseases/Conditions/Agents/Treatment
Federal Plans and Guidance
First responder

Hospital & Health Facilities
Individual/Public Guides &
Info
Information Management
Laboratories
Legal Issues
Mental Health Issues
Miscellaneous
·
Training/Seminars/Classes/Conferences
·
Periodicals and
Publications
·
List Servers/Bulletin
Services/Forums for WMD
·
Commercial Sites
2. There is an incredible amount of information available through
the internet (hence this document is currently 35 pages and growing!). As an introduction to understanding the
complexity of all of the federal offices involved in WMD, go to the organizational chart at http://cns.miis.edu/research/cbw/domestic.htm#wmdchart
3. For whatever electronic reason,
some of these links will not load directly. If it will not load, I
recommend you copy the link and insert it into the address line on your web
browser, then try bringing it up. Some
links are old and may not come up at all.
I fix those as I find them.
4. To add to this listing or to get the latest edition contact Greg
Banner at the Rhode Island Department of Health. gregoryb@doh.state.ri.us This is a working document and so updates
are made to it almost continuously.
5. The list will be maintained and available for downloading off of
the web at the following address:
