Each year, the city of Scottsdale, Ariz., hosts a week-long exercise called the Coyote Crisis Campaign. Based on a different security threat each year, the exercise this year focuses on the threat of pandemic influenza, particularly avian influenza that may one day be capable of spreading among humans.

Dan Verton and Homeland Defense Week recently spent a week in Scottsdale producing the following mini-documentary on how the city — it’s health care providers, first responders, and private businesses — are planning to deal with the crisis once it occurs.

Part One and Part Two of this series.
