The Emergency Measures Organization in Quispamsis is preparing the town for an outbreak of the H1N1 virus. Director Brian Shanks says EMO will be conducting an exercise that looks at the worst case scenerio at the town hall. He says it’s essential to look at how the town will maintain essential services if it is hit hard by the so called swine-flu.
On October 15th half of town hall staff will be looking at how to keep services running smoothly, while the other half will be working while wearing the preventive flu masks. Things get started at 8:30 and run until noon.
