JMA Disaster Headquarters Status Reports
We greatly appreciate your kind concern and offers of support to those affected by the Japan Tohoku earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011. The Japan Medical Association has launched the JMA Disaster Countermeasures Headquarters and is working together with the prefectural medical associations, county and city medical associations as well as the Japanese and local governments for the people in the affected areas.
The Headquarters provides Status Reports to prefectural medical associations (and from there to county and city medical associations and individual members). We try to report the activities being performed by medical associations, and local information in the affected areas, other than what is widely reported in the news and TV.
These status reports are information intended solely to facilitate our relief activities in Japan, but we would like to share some information, assuming that they might also be useful to other countries.
