Does Mizzou have a plan for pandemic flu?
Yes. Officials at Mizzou plan for all types of emergencies in conjunction with local, state and federal government agencies. Communication is crucial. The more people know about planning and prevention, the more they can be ready if an emergency happens. Mizzou administrators and MU Environmental Health and Safety have plans for handling pandemic flu, including keeping people informed and handling specifics for students, faculty and staff on campus. Likewise, University of Missouri Health Care has plans to handle a possible increase in sick people and to help prevent the spread of such sickness. In case of a major pandemic flu outbreak in mid-Missouri, people should stay tuned to campus information and local and national news sources to find out how to proceed. Information will be distributed about how to get vaccinated. In addition to following campus, local, state and national plans, you should have your own personal plan, too.
