抄録

Swine-origin influenza (A/H1N1) infection was confirmed around the world in 2009. It is important to understand events in terms of risk management and crisis management for this pandemic influenza. The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare estimated the damage before the infection spread and established a pandemic scenario. This information was useful as the worst-case scenario for making decisions in response to similar but different crisis situation. In this paper, we analyze the importance of local government in crisis management from the case study in Kobe City. The purpose of this paper is to make proposals for a strategic response using the scenario as the starting points, then develop a new and more adaptable scenario based on continuous monitoring of situations.
