The general concepts incorporated into the CPIP that may be utilised in the contingency planning for other infectious disease emergencies include: a national, coordinated approach to planning; an emergency management structure to coordinate and conduct the response; the need for common terminology (e.g. using the same response phases), and the need to have specific technical, communications and operational response groups and networks formed in advance.	./cache/cord-281571-vob1bu9c.txt	./txt/cord-281571-vob1bu9c.txt
