Title:
Effectiveness of Disease Control Measures in Military Operations
Report Date:
2020-04-01
Abstract:
Outbreaks of contagious disease in a military theater can pose significant challenges to commanders, who seek to balance the need to achieve military objectives with the need to protect the health of the force. Yet commanders and their medical advisors lack analytically based guidance for planning and executing measures to control outbreaks when baseline capabilities prove inadequate. To meet this need, IDA evaluated medical countermeasures, isolation, quarantine, and restriction of personnel movement as outbreak control measures within an operational theater.
