DURING 2014-2015, NYSDOH OHEP WORKED WITH LOCAL JURISDICTIONS TO IMPROVE THEIR ABILITIES TO RESPOND TO AN EVENT REQUIRING DISTRIBUTION AND DISPENSING OF MEDICAL COUNTERMEASURE (MCM) TO THEIR POPULATION IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY EVENT THAT WOULD REQUIRE PROPHYLAXIS, TREATMENT OR OTHER MEASURES TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY.
