dc.description.abstractA new highly contagious viral disease, Forest Respiratory Encephalitis (FRE), is spreading in the hypothetical country of “Panderia.” Confusion and rumour make it harder for health care workers and government officials to combat the outbreak. Efforts to tackle FRE also have to contend with the power of social media. Claims of cures and panic-inducing conspiracy theories follow sudden outbreaks. You are chief scientific advisor of the neighbouring country, “Emergeria,” where a group of 12 refugees from Panderia have entered the country illegally. What are the considerations you must take into account in light of the background provided by the International Network for Government Science Advice (INGSA)?en
