The Great Hanshin Earthquake and Tokyo Subway Sarin Attack are two disasters which are quite different from each other. However,
same situation followed after the disasters, i.e. poor disaster information for the hospitals, poor disaster information from the hospitals,
and concentration of patients to some hospitals. Note that information transmission is one of the key factors of successful
management in various types of disasters.
