DHS Sets Guidelines For Possible Swine Flu Quarantines --Federal
quarantine authority is limited to diseases listed in presidential
executive orders; President [sic] Bush added "novel" forms of
influenza with the potential to create pandemics in Executive Order
13375. 28 Apr 2009 DHS Assistant Secretary Bridger McGaw circulated
the swine flu memo, which was obtained by CBSNews.com, on Monday
night. It says: "The Department of Justice has established legal
federal authorities pertaining to the implementation of a quarantine
and enforcement. Under approval from HHS, the Surgeon General has the
authority to issue quarantines." Anyone violating a quarantine order
can be punished by a $250,000 fine and a one-year prison term. A
Defense Department planning document summarizing the military's
contingency plan says the Pentagon is prepared to assist in
"quarantining groups of people in order to minimize the spread of
disease during an influenza pandemic" and aiding in "efforts to
restore and maintain order."
Mass. Senate approves pandemic flu bill with quarantine powers --New
Senate version allows public health commissioner to close or evacuate
buildings, enter private property for investigations, and quarantine
individuals --Measure requires registry for volunteers to be activated
in emergency 28 Apr 2009 The Massachusetts Senate has unanimously
passed a pandemic flu preparation bill that has languished in the
Legislature before the recent swine flu outbreak. The 36-0 vote today
sends the measure to the House. The new Senate version would allow the
public health commissioner -- in a public health emergency -- to close
or evacuate buildings, enter private property for investigations, and
quarantine individuals. The measure also requires a registry for
volunteers that would be activated in an emergency and establishes
fines of up to $1,000 for not complying with local public health
orders.
Ga. gov signs flu bill with 'state or emergency' for pandemic if
'phase 5 alert' is declared --House Bill 217 allows Georgians to
receive (deadly) vaccines easier 28 Apr 2009 Georgia nurses and
pharmacists have more authority to respond to the spreading swine flu
outbreak and the governor has more power as the result of legislation
Gov. Sonny Perdue (R) signed this morning. The Access to Flu Vaccines
Act cosponsored by the druggists in the House is designed to make it
easier for Georgians to receive shots and for the state to respond
quicker... At the same time, it lets the governor declare a state or
emergency for a pandemic influenza if the CDC or World Health
Organization declares a phase 5 alert.
Fulton County 'Ready to Vaccinate a Million People In 48 Hours' --CDC
has passenger quarantine facilities at 20 US airports 30 Apr 2009 (GA)
Ever since all of the bird flu cases four years ago, county health
departments across Metro Atlanta have been holding drills and meetings
every month, practicing and discussing every imaginable scenario of a
flu pandemic. "We've been planning for this for years," said Dr. Kim
Turner, the director of public health in Fulton County. "We're
prepared to vaccinate a million people within Fulton County within 48
hours." Another line of defense is at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta
International Airport -- the CDC's medical quarantine station at the
airport. CDC physicians are in contact with arriving flight crews, and
board every plane that has an ill passenger, as soon as the plane is
parked at the gate. The physicians determine on the spot whether to
quarantine that patient and all the other passengers. The CDC
quarantines them at the CDC's sealed rooms on E Concourse.
