Assignment:
CASE STUDY DISCUSSION
Purpose
The purpose of this discussion is to apply your knowledge of the Army Health System in a forum that allows an exchange of ideas and collaboration similar to that of a classroom.
Background Information
As the sun rises over the land, the village of Givrakh appears peaceful, almost idyllic. However, this is a dead place that has been struck by a silent killer. It has left all of the inhabitants in either a hospital or worse yet, dead. The culprit, influenza, is possibly the most deadly strain of the virus yet seen. Experts from the World Health Organization are saying that this virus is worse than both the avian and swine flu outbreaks. It swept through this area with incredible speed. The entire region of Nakhchivan is now under quarantine as an international effort begins seeking to get control of the situation as fears of a pandemic are rising. Complicating matters is the recent increase in tensions between Atropia and Minaria over the region of Nagorno-Karabakh, a conflict that threatens to affect the relief efforts here in Nakhchivan.
Discussion Questions
During your deployment to Nakhchivan, you and your unit are going to be exposed to both health threats and general threats. While preparing for your deployment you want to make sure you have planned for as many of these threats as possible. What kinds of health threats do you anticipate? What type of general threats do you anticipate? What can you do to prepare for these threats?
