Speaker's Bureau On Emergency Response

Emergency Response and Terrorism

Effective emergency response is dependent on knowledgeable medical professionals as well as a highly informed and involved public. The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services created the Emergency Response Speaker’s Bureau to provide information about public health threats, outbreaks of infectious diseases, and potential bioterrorism emergencies to medical professionals and to Missouri residents.

The Speaker’s Bureau has experts available to speak to schools, medical conferences, civic organizations, and professional groups on a variety of emergency response and public health topics. The aim of the Speaker’s Bureau is to provide essential information to medical professionals and citizens so that they are better equipped to respond during times of crisis.

Our experts can speak on topics such as:

  • Agri-Terrorism (Animals & Plants)
  • Bioterrorism Agents/Diseases (Such as Anthrax, Plague, and Smallpox)
  • Disaster Planning
  • Decontamination
  • Emerging Infections (Such as Monkeypox, SARS, and West Nile)
  • Pandemic Influenza
  • Pediatric Bioterrorism Issues
  • Psychological Aspects of Terrorism
  • Radiological/Nuclear Issues
  • Ready in 3 (Individual & Family Emergency Preparedness)
  • School Safety
  • State Public Health Laboratory
  • Strategic National Stockpile
  • Weapons of Mass Destruction
