title: Post-tsunami outbreaks of influenza in evacuation centers in Miyagi Prefecture, Japan.
abstract: We describe 2 post-tsunami outbreaks of influenza A in evacuation centers in Miyagi Prefecture, Japan, in 2011. Although containment of the outbreak was challenging in the evacuation settings, prompt implementation of a systemic approach with a bundle of control measures was important to control the influenza outbreaks.
