  1. CIO Council Pandemic Committee June 2007 Report

  2. Deliverables • We provide constant surveillance over the world’s news media.  • We routinely go over current events.  • We are seeking and conducting peer review of agency pandemic plans. • Our Website is an excellent portal for preparedness info.  • Soon, our pandemic e-newsletter will be back in circulation.  • The Florida Channel has asked to continue carrying all our meetings live on statewide television.  This has a larger audience than you would imagine, and reinforces us as the most transparent of all the pandemic groups – if there are other pandemic groups out there!  So wear makeup.

  3. Key Assumptions • Assessments of individual agency preparedness are pointless and worthless, because we have no mandate to do so and no one cares right now about pandemics, save for us.  • So we will continue to harass and harangue those agencies who do not actively participate, and work closely with those that do want to join us.  • We will provide, via meetings and Website info, the information agencies need to prepare.  • We will discuss best practices and we will absorb and implement what we can. •  But we want agencies as a whole to prepare, not just IT.  • So we also need to “eat our own dog food” and make formal requests for masks, hand sanitizer, gloves and other non-pharmaceutical interventions for us and for our staff.  • This will continue to remind decision-makers that government won’t run on goodwill alone when a pandemic strikes.  • Maybe we can’t stockpile Tamiflu (actually we can as individuals), but we can do what we must to protect our people.
