UNCW Pandemic Flu Exercise
UNCW held a pandemic flu tabletop exercise in October of 2007. This exercise enabled key UNCW administrators and emergency responders to practice response actions to a pandemic flu scenario. This exercise has enabled UNCW to become better prepared to respond to a pandemic flu or infectious disease event.
