3 Outline Thoughts on Urban Biodefense Importance of Testbeds MIT LL Urban Testbed Initial Approach MBTA subway experiments Algorithmic approach Future Work TJD 2
4 Challenges Associated with Civilian Biodefense Any high-density site (city, airport, facility, building) represents a potential target Population to be protected is diverse (age, mobility, health) No environmental sensing systems will be tolerated that have high false negative or false positive rates If they alarm too much or miss events, they will be ignored Current clinical diagnostic technologies and medical infrastructure are not suited to rapid detection of bioagent events Advanced diagnostics (e.g., PCR) use is rare, even in large city hospitals No medical reporting systems are in use that have real-time detection of infectious disease patterns as their objective TJD 3
5 Biodefense Components Homeland Biodefense Numerous relationships between portions of this hierarchy are not shown. Response Management Health Care Environmental Monitoring Threat Management Training Publicity Mgmt Decontamination Inoculation Diagnosis Treatment Public Health Surveillance Sample Analysis Individual Protection Air Food Water Intelligence Facility Protection City-wide defense Base Protection Destruction Redteaming Attribution Indoor Outdoor Aircraft Airport Terminal Large Subway building Arenas Stadium Shopping mall Public Gathering TJD 4 Biodefense development must be multi-faceted.
6 Needed Biodefense Investments Point-of-care and public health not well integrated Health care system is the current detector System (multi-sensor) environmental monitoring development Focus has been on basic technology and devices Characterization of environments of high-threat facilities Sensor technology not universally applicable Helps to set requirements Large-scale urban protection Sparse sampling/sensing Low probability event with catastrophic consequences (akin to nuclear detonation) Red-teaming TJD 5
7 Environmental Monitors DoD environmental monitors designed for outdoor force protection High sensitivity preference Current cost prohibits mass-production Unproven performance in urban or indoor areas where air is filled with interferents Urban Civil Protection has markedly different requirements from military use Low false alert rate and low cost a priority Lower sensitivity partial solution may be preferred Wide variation in environments (e.g. stadium vs. subway) Densely populated areas add to natural biological interferents Airflow, HVAC are important design considerations TJD 6
