Frederick County ARES will be providing tactical communications for
the Frederick
County Health Dept. Influenza Vaccination Clinics & Preparedness
Exercise on Friday,
Oct. 16th, from 1000 until 1400 at three county high schools. This
exercise will
simulate a Mass Immunization emergency scenario and will utilize the
Area Command form
of the Incident Command System (ICS) with an Incident Commander at
each location. We
will be providing 2M voice communications between the clinics and the
Health Dept. HQ
in Frederick via one of the local repeaters.
We are attempting to be able to provide radios, antennas and power
supplies at each
location, but personal gear is preferred. The clinics will be at
Governor Thomas
Johnson, Urbana, and Brunswick High Schools.
In addition, all operators can get a FREE flu shot if they wish.
Ah, the perks of amateur radio volunteering!
This will be a great opportunity see the ICS in action and all
interested hams are
invited to participate (ARES/RACES membership is NOT required). Please
contact me if
you are available on the 16th for a four hour shift, or if you have
any questions.
Thanks!
