The document outlines a program to educate first responders on viral hemorrhagic fevers (VHFs). The program goals are to teach recognition of VHF signs and symptoms, treatment and transport of patients, and proper personal protective equipment. The program will provide online training, testing, and printable reference materials. VHFs are severe illnesses caused by four virus families that damage blood vessels and can cause bleeding, organ problems, and death. Common signs include fever, weakness, rash and bleeding. Protection from animal hosts, mosquitoes or direct contact with body fluids is key to prevention. First responders must use proper protective equipment and follow protocols for safely transporting patients to isolated hospital facilities for supportive treatment.
