JBAIDS Modernization

FDA cleared JBAIDS assay kits Anthrax (Nov 2005) Tularemia (Dec 2007) Plague (Dec 2007) Brucellosis (study started Oct 2007) Q-Fever (approved IRB protocol in use in theater) Avian Influenza (FluA/H5) GEIS funded

AF employment FDA cleared JBAIDS kits ONLY on deployable FFBAT UTC HSMR-LT will not use FDA cleared kits

JBAIDS Training

FY09 training slots HSMR-LT line funded slots – 45 slots

44 of 45 slots apportioned 26 trained as of today

Air Staff pays for class - $7,800

TDY cost’s are paid locally with HSMR line funds (PE 28036F) HSMR-LT Chief notify local SGX of trainees Local SGX works with RMO to load HSMR funds into DTS

I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e 10

JBAIDS Training

Biological Augmentation Team (FFBAT) FFBAT DHP funded slots – 12 slots

10 of 12 slots requested 1st FFBAT trainee scheduled for April

Air Staff pays for class - $7,800

TDY costs are paid locally with DHP dollars Air Staff MIPRs funds to MAJCOM Funds are identified for particular base / trainee DHP funds loaded into DTS

JBAIDS Sustainment

AFMLO has set up a decentralized blanket purchase agreement

Notifications have gone out to 24 of 52 bases Local medical logistics will order JBAIDS supplies Delivery approximately 30 days after completed order

Gap at some bases with expired reagents Guidelines have gone out to MAJCOM Lab Consultants Continue PT and real-world samples

Real-world samples also sent to LRN / DoD lab

Way ahead – Decentralize JBAIDS ordering through ECAT

Medical Readiness Decision Support System (MRDSS)

JBAIDS Training documentation in MRDSS JBAIDS training uploaded in MRDSS for active duty

FY09 trainees should have UTM document training Information to be used to award training slots – FY10

Proficiency testing / competency assessment FFBAT and HSMR-LT required once per year

M1M training documentation in MRDSS Has not been completed to-date PT / competency assessment documentation on-hold

HSMR-LT (886I) allowance standard readiness status Bundling critical items

Installation Protection Program

AF / A7 has purchased Dry Filter Units (DFUs) Expected to be delivered to all AF bases in CY09

AF wants DFUs samples to be tested with PCR HHAs have demonstrated false negatives with DFUs

Tier II bases – DFUs operational 24/7 around critical missions Andrews, Barksdale*, and Robins* Peterson Ramstein

* Tier I-plus

I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e 19

Installation Protection ProgramTier I Bases

Tier I Bases Draft CONOPS has been written by AF / A7 DFUs deployment – credible threat to base CE collects filters and delivers to HSMR-LT for testing

Issues How will the Wing commander use the DFUs

IPP will be briefing each base Effects on labs daily mission

Testing panel – currently top 4 IPP purchasing additional JBAIDS supplies for 18 bases

Estimated delivery date July ‘09

HSMR-LT Capability Adding Capability to AF Bases

20

Additional HSMR-LT capability being targeted for FY10

Support of Installation Protection Program strategy

Provide CBR detection capability

Issues

Training – Minimum three lab personnel JBAIDS trained

Facility – Standard minimum requirements in draft

Draft to be reviewed and approved by AF LBDSC

GMRS presentation planned – Orlando (May ‘09)
