Player Handbook: Pandemic Influenza Tabletop Exercise
The handbook provides information for the players, which enables them to participate more effectively. It is in addition to the information given in the player briefing at the exercise and encourages questions about roles and responsibilities. It also provides the structure or rules for the exercise.
| Note: the original training included a realistic video clip for each scenario. Copies of the videos are available at each County/City Health Department or by completing the IDEPC Comment Form. |
