Cincinnati area officials to simulate mass casualty disaster next month
[link to www.wcpo.com]

CINCINNATI - Emergency workers from across the region will come together next month to train for the unthinkable, but necessary: Preparing for an event like one that rocked the Boston Marathon Monday.

A mass casualty incident drill is scheduled May 15 at the Hamilton County Fairgrounds. It will be the first drill testing a new mass casualty incident plan recently implemented by the Hamilton County Fire Chiefs Association.

The drill will come exactly a month after the Boston bombings, which left three people dead and spotlighted the preparedness of emergency workers, nurses, trauma doctors and surgeons who treated scores of wounded people.

A marathon would be too predictable and too soon. It would raise
Questions. Besides, everyone will have their eyes open at the marathon.

I read our bridges w KY were on a likely terror target list years ago. Id be worried there. Our 75 bridge is going to be replaced at some point in the future so it would be expendable to TPTB. Also i remember in that article about the bridges, it said that if the 74,75, and 275 bridges were taken out it could crush the economy and severely alter shipping lanes.

GE also has a big plant here. This drill is at the HC fairgrounds like 2-3 exits down 75 from GE. Its infrastructure is aging.

Who knows.

Im a little tired of the streetcar talk. We dont need it. Theyre running it through ghettos so you know who will be riding it, those that cant afford to.

I drive right by it on RReagan to and from work. It mentions those nasty freak pileups we had on 275 and 75 a few months ago. Are they planning a highway attack? If so, the fairgrounds is right next to RReagan and 75 a major major artery.

There are many events in Cincinnati for that day/date range including concerts, reds game, and free family events like party in the park. Another event, close to the fairgrounds is a free family event about 15-20 miles southwest of the fairgrounds at a church.

Re: Cincinnati area officials to simulate mass casualty disaster next month
I live west of this area. This is the first I heard of this drill. Thanks for sharing.

The Hamilton County Fairgrounds is in a really crappy part of town. It used to be a very nice, middle class neighborhood but not anymore.

Hell, even our 4-H Community Fair, that was held at the Hamilton County Fairground for many years, was moved to Stricker's Grove in Butler County.

Part of me wants to go to the drill to take photos, the other part of me wants to stay the hell away!

Well the fairgrounds website says on its events calendar that its open for the drill but there is nothing else planned for that day...

You could maybe take pictures from safe areas and when a "real" disaster happens, you could share pictures saying "that happened at the drill!! Not at the [event]!!!"
