BERLIN — Don’t be alarmed if you see several local police cars, fire trucks, and New Hampshire state vehicles steering through town on Saturday, April 13, and gathering at Berlin High School. There will be an exercise (drill) taking place to test and improve the Berlin region’s overall preparedness for an emergency event.
The exercise is fictional and will simulate a bio-terrorism event requiring Berlin area residents to receive antibiotics. The scope of this initiative is a collaborative effort between several organizations from the local and state levels, including: the city of Berlin (emergency management, SAU 3 and police and fire departments); the towns of Gorham and Milan; North Country Public Health Network — North Country Health Consortium; N.H. Department of Health and Human Services; and N.H. Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management.
