Biological
Terrorism: Deadly Pathogens and Your
BCP™
- Keynote and/or Workshop
Deadly
biological epidemics are an
all-too-real possibility--whether by
natural cause or through intentional
release. Following
this program participants will
know:
What might happen to their
business if a pathogenic
disease spreads in their city...or
across America
What
to do if employees report symptoms
of a
dangerous virus
What
authority the government has to
invoke a
"forced quarantine" or "condon
solitaire" that might
keep all employees at home for
weeks
If their business can handle
city or state border closures
during a regional or national
epidemic
Who has legal authority to
use guns on citizens if you or
your employees (and families) resist
forced quarantine
How your BCP might cope with
the effects of a city
closed down for days to
weeks
Who really controls the most
dangerous pathogens in
the world and how they get into
unscrupulous hands
Whether your local hospitals
and public health agencies
are prepared for a mass-casualty
bio-event
Why responsibilities should
extend beyond disaster
prevention to political
advocacy
About dangerous, ongoing
activities that could wreak
havoc on the business sector...and
America's economy
What we have learned from
various mock disasters--and
the SARS pandemic--that could help
if a pathogen turned
out to be Plague, Smallpox, or
Ebola
Real-world, common-sense
guidelines for handling such
events

WHAT
RECENT CLIENTS HAVE TO

Mr.
Thompson's presentation was not only
timely but informative. It addressed
the threat of biological terrorism that
soon materialized on the east coast.
Such a discussion by a noted speaker

Spellbinding
would not be too strong a word for the
attention I gave and could see others
giving to your talk. You offered us
some very sobering insights and
presented them in a businesslike way. I
was inspired by your ending the talk
with words of hope.
