Medical Countermeasures & Strategic National Stockpile Unit

Managing medical countermeasure stockpiles and deployment logistics for mass casualty health events.

Mission Statement

The Medical Countermeasures & Strategic National Stockpile Unit manages the planning, procurement, storage, and deployment logistics for medical countermeasures — vaccines, antivirals, antibiotics, antitoxins, and medical equipment — needed to respond to biological emergencies at mass scale. The unit develops deployment plans that get countermeasures to affected populations within hours of activation, and advises governments on stockpile composition and maintenance strategies that balance cost against preparedness.

Key Functions
