2. Reflecting on Week 10’s discussion of urban vs. rural health, please review the Rural emergency preparedness and response link in the supplemental materials. Please describe how an emergency situation (e.g., mass casualty incident, bioterrorism, etc) might be handled differently in an urban vs. rural setting. What are some reasons for it being handled differently (hint: check out the challenges section of the website)? What impact might that have for a community or an individual in a rural setting compared to urban?
