be provided ASAP. 1 hour after the
incident the victim should be already
in the hands of a specialized medical
team at a hospital. Considering the
current legal framework - in Poland,
and in numerous EU states - qualified
medical aid may only enter the scene
after the threat is contained or not
present at all. Creating teams that
could support the systemic rescue
means, such as Rescue Task Force
(rapid reaction medical teams), and
launching work that would include
teams as such in the Polish medical
rescue system, can greatly improve
the current status quo and would
allow for the scope of know-how
and responsibility of the medical
responders to be normalized,
concerning terrorist threats, or
other extraordinary circumstances.

covering matters such as analysis
of terrorist threats in Poland,
the anti-terrorist system in
Poland AD 2020, and conclusions
and recommendations; can be
