disaster plans might have to change when another disaster occurs in the middle of that other one, if there aren’t already plans for that
I hope we have enough time between instances of the same kind of emergency to think of those contingencies too. Ideally, our emergency-preparedness institutions should all be able to talk to each other and coordinate their plans together.
