B k dBackground
State and local emergency planners need to g y pdetermine the numbers and locations of the Points of Distribution (PODs) before the pandemic eventpandemic event.
PODs are required to provide prophylaxis to th ti l ti ithi 48 hthe entire population within 48 hours.
The biggest challenge facing planners is gg g g pdetermining how to allocate their limited PODs staff.

Staff Distribution and Attendants Expectation
Appro imatel ho man people ill attend each site?Approximately how many people will attend each site?
Estimation based on the population distribution in the p pcounty and their direct proximities to each location.
Network analysis may provide greater accuracyNetwork analysis may provide greater accuracy.
Census block centroids are used to measure the distance.

Limitation and ImprovementLimitation and Improvement
No actual data verify the accuracy of the prediction –A l fl li i d t t il bl t th ti fAnnual flu clinic data were not available at the time of the analysis.
Direct proximity were used instead actual driving or walking time.
Up-to-date block population data are not free and have to be purchasedto be purchased.
