註釋Past high-profile attacks on the United States have been focused on major cities, including Washington, D.C. and New York City. Generally, planned attacks will focus on centralized urban areas in order to cause as much damage as possible. In addition, centralized urban areas are more prone to damage, injuries, and death in comparison with rural areas. As a result, I propose a multi-objective modeling approach for strategically siting a critical vaccine supply facility that integrates disaster preparedness directives and critical infrastructure protection needs with respect to urban concentrations of critical facilities and populations. Specifically, I apply this model to locate the future placement of a critical vaccine stockpile in the greater metropolitan areas of Tampa Bay and Orlando in Central Florida. This research should benefit planners, policy makers, academics and researchers, as well as the welfare of civilians who are vulnerable to attack.
