An event for Government Officials, Community Leaders, Health Care and Public Health Professionals.

• How will government make decisions in times of severely limited resources?
• Who gets hospitalized and who doesn’t when there aren’t enough beds?
• How will leaders answer the community’s questions about fairness?
• Will an antiviral protect during a pandemic and are there enough for everyone?
• What happens when there are mass fatalities?

A seminar which promises to raise more questions than it answers and begins a conversation necessary to public health preparedness.  Join the County of Morris as we begin to ask the hard questions and search for fair answers.

Speakers include:
Nancy Berlinger, PhD., Hastings Center, NY
Rev. Dr. Jeff Garland, St Barnabas Hospital
Dr. Jan Schwarz-Miller, Morristown Memorial Hospital
