[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS yK4KLR0x. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. The September 11,2001. attack on the World Trade Center had profound effects on the well being of New York City. The authors describe and assess the strengths and weaknesses of the city's response to the public health, environmental/occupational health, and mental health dimensions of the attack in the first 6 months after the event. They also examine the impact on the city's health care and social service system. The authors suggest lessons that can inform the development of a post-September 11th agenda for strengthening urban health infrastructures.
