Federal, State and Local Planning for Pandemic:  Pandemic viruses will take federal, state and local resources to respond. Roles vary at each level, with general guidance provided at the federal level with detailed operational plans at the state and local levels. The federal government provides general guidance and laboratory support to states, supports vaccine research and conducts national and international disease surveillance activities. In March, 2020 the CDC released its latest pandemic plan which can be found HERE. These resources were created for pandemic influenza but has been recommended by the CDC to follow these guidelines as we learn more about the Coronavirus. MA reviews federal guidance and develops plans for statewide implementation.
