Interesting, the AP is reporting no injuries on the ground and CNN is reporting 1 injury. CNN has live video and looking at the video I don't see how there isn't any casualties. Keep us updated.

An MCI can be declared on the number of potential casualties, not just the number of actual casualties. Until the primary and secondary searches have been completed, no one will know how many actual casualties there are. It's entirely possible that there are bodies in the burnt out buildings.

MCI= Mass Casualty Incident Rdale.

Uhh - thanks? I know what an MCI is since my job revolves around planning for them. Around most parts they don't declare one until they know that the number of casualties will overwhelm the healthcare system. Guess they just do it different in VA, which is why I asked. No big deal.

(PS Read what I wrote next time, don't jump to conclusions based on what you think you know)
