Public Health Emergency Preparedness
Leidos experts in public health, emergency response, and disaster recovery work with customers to help them anticipate, plan for, detect, respond to, and recover from health emergencies.
Bioterrorism is A Real Threat. Leidos Helps You Prepare.
Leidos preparedness and technology experts collaborate to design and implement interoperable information systems that enable public health officials, first responders, and other emergency personnel to share critical information and resources. We develop and use technology to help speed the detection of and response to disease outbreaks and bioterrorist attacks through the integration of syndromic surveillance systems that capture and report health data indicators in near real-time.
Our capabilities include the development and acquisition of vaccines, therapeutics, and medical countermeasures that can protect public health in the event of a biological, chemical, radiological, or nuclear attack. We also devise plans for distributing and dispensing countermeasures to assure the needs of our citizens are met.
Our emergency preparedness and response solutions include emergency planning, multi-agency training, and exercises to enable organizations to plan for and execute a coordinated response when disaster strikes. We offer tools to assess vulnerabilities, predict hazards, and analyze consequences. These tools help first responders and other preparedness officials evaluate risk and determine resource requirements as they formulate a response.
