Weeks before Dallas Ebola case, OIG slammed DHS, TSA for ineffective pandemic preparedness


By Lisa Simeone - Posted on 04 October 2014

Expired respirators? Unsanitary hand sanitizer? Antivirals unaccounted for? No problem! As long as the TSA keeps putting its hands down people's pants, we're safe!

 

Read the rest at TSA News.

Quote:  "...  Can we expect to see an uptick in adult trick-or-treaters dressed as surgeons and hazmat workers this Halloween?"

Maybe.

Quote:  "Reading this OIG report, I can’t help but wonder how the DHS will be able to respond to a really big health crisis, given that it can’t even manage its own supplies of protective gear and antiviral medicine."

Scary.
