In any chaotic situation or disaster, accurate communication among so many stakeholders will be a challenge. However, as discussed throughout, and as Rahul Gupta, West Virginia Health Department, Dan Hanfling, UPMC Center for Health Security, and John Osborn, Mayo Clinic College of Medicine, noted, exchanging information and bringing partners together often throughout the response, identifying the right data to collect to improve situational awareness, and encouraging inclusive regional health care coalitions are a few ways this challenge can begin to be alleviated.
