The Working Group on 'Governance Dilemmas' in Bioterrorism Response comprises 30 members whose professional backgrounds include seasoned decision-makers at local, state, and federal levels of government; public health practitioners who have managed responses to high-profile outbreaks and terrorist attacks; infectious disease specialists; journalists and news editors who have covered government responses to disasters and crises of authority; technical experts in public affairs, risk communication, and disaster psychiatry and sociology; and community organizers and advocates for special populations. The Working Group was the culmination of a larger project focused on articulating best practices and principles for leaders when communicating with the public in the context of response to a biological attack.
