<p><strong>Results: </strong>The results of the study showed that all relevant stakeholders were mapped and engaged in the response for anthrax outbreak. The coordination system started prior to the confirmation of the first case and it appears to be well-organized, particularly in the early stages of an outbreak. While treating cases public health measures like mass vaccinations had contributed to ending the outbreak. The results of the study showed that there was a gap on the availability of documents and other supportive materials used for preparedness. Early preparation of logistics and supplies such as drugs, medical equipment and laboratory supplies were not prepositioned. In addition, there was a poor communication channel, lack of capacity building training for health care providers and regular supportive supervision on public health emergency management prior to the outbreak.&nbsp;</p>
