Office of the President
CC: DOD,DOS,DOE
1700 Pennsylvania Ave. NW
Washington, D.C. 200018-546
Executive Summary:
The President, along with his advisory team has established a list of priorities, which, in the case of a global pandemic will be strictly adhered to. The first priroity of the government will be the military security of North America, meaning military action takes priority because without the military, the government will not be as effective in eliminating the pandemic. The second priority is containment of the pandemic. The third is finding a vaccine and cure.
Military Prospective
Our generals have declared a minimal risk of nuclear exchange with other nation states but stated that there is a risk in terms of nuclear terrorism. They also stated that a land invasion of North America is unlikely because the nations that are capable of invading North America are members of NATO and would not invade. In the case of a pandemic, the Joint Chiefs have recommended that the Airports and other ports of entry be shut down, the border should be militarized, the national guard should be mobilized, and that our government facilities be stocked with survival rations and gear.
Scientific Prospective
The science advisers have stated that the first priority in the case of pandemic ought to be to secure our communications with the outside world. The next step would be limiting the spread of the disease and limiting panic.

Recommendations for Action:
Once a pandemic is detected inside North America, the following orders will be issued simultaneously in order of priority.
Once a pandemic is detected inside North America, the following orders will be issued simultaneously in order of priority.
- Our defense posture is to be moved from DEFCON 5(defense condition) to DEFCON2, making our nuclear arsenal ready for deployment. This action would also lock down every international military base, recalling troops outside of bases back to base. At that point each base is authorized to use any force necessary to repel any intruder.
- The president will suspend Habeas Corpus laws which require a court to have a reason for imprisoning someone. Article 1, Section 9, Clause 2, of the Constitution gives the executive the power to suspend this requirement in the case of national emergency or military invasion.
- The national guard of each state will be federalized. Martial law will be established and curtailed to meet the needs of the federal government in order to respond to the pandemic.
- All ports of entry into North America will be closed, all transports bound for North America will be denied entry into North American airspace or territorial waters. Military units stationed near border areas will secure and patrol the borders. Any person or group attempting to enter North America will be turned away with any force nessesary.
- The executive branch will freze all spending on non essential functions and re-direct spending towards militarly mobilization, civilian food supply, quarantine measures, and finding a cure.
- The military will quarantine 10 Square miles around the site of infection and any subsequent infection sites. military quarantine infected areas.
