Don't know if this url works the way I added it, but this is what I found:
Bio Pod 2004
On November 11,2004, Bio Pod 2004 will be held.
At eight sites located throughout the city, on duty Fire and EMS members will be directed to the nearest POD (point of distribution). At each POD, members will be offered the flu (influenza) vaccine. At the same time, members will participate in a drill designed to evaluate the distribution of prophylactic medication.

It's a department wide drill. To evaluate how long it would take to give the antedote to the members in case of a chemical or biological attack. They use the flu shot as the training antedote and this way they can kill 2 birds with one stone(drill and flu shots)
