NEWSFLASH
Smallpox Vaccine Storage and Handling , WB3088 www2.cdc.gov/nip/isd/spoxvsh/launch1.html
The purpose of the Smallpox Vaccine Storage & Handling web course is to ensure that healthcare providers properly store, handle, and ship smallpox vaccine. By maintaining the cold chain, providers can be confident that the vaccine retains its potency and the expense of wasted vaccine caused by improper storage and handling practices is reduced.



Bioterrorism Agents: Plague, WB3094 www.bt.cdc.gov/agent/plague/trainingmodule
This course is presented online in 7 lessons covering the various topics healthcare providers need to understand in order to recognize plague, determine whether or not it is possible bioterrorism and respond appropriately. All course participants will be taught about the natural epidemiology of plague and how to diagnose it, how to recognize possible bioterrorist plague, how to manage plague cases in contained casualty and mass casualty situations. Veterinarians will be taught how to diagnose and treat plague in animals and how animal cases could signal a bioterrorist attack of plague. The participants will finish with a self-assessment module that will allow them to review the information with simulation-like questions that would mimic real-world experiences.
