Death in Large Numbers provides critical information for those responsible for preparedness, response and recovery operations in catastrophic incidents with mass fatalities.
Written by respected leaders and experts who have made mass fatality policy, planning and incident response a priority in their careers, Death in Large Numbers provides the most current information on diagnostics and technologies. It presents epidemiological and outbreak scenarios to highlight strategy considerations and offers context to current thought in national policy.

This section tackles the rolf of civil-military integration and Department of Defense's role, capabilities and limitations with regard to its mission and plans in support of the national response framework and local authorities.
