Biological Warfare Against the United States

Paper Summary:

The writer discusses the real threat of biological terror attacks against the United States against the background of September 11th. The paper explores various kinds of weapons, including anthrax, the risks they pose and what can be done to prevent them being used against America.

From the Paper:

"Both common sense and our government tell us that our country is still at grave risk for both further physical attacks and further incidents of biological terrorist attacks. The fact is that under the right circumstances, a variety of biological weapons can be transported and released. (Atlas, 1999) Because of the wide variety of materials and methods of distribution that could be used, it will take considerable effort to protect us even partially from bioterrist attacks, so may not be possible to protect us completely. However, our government can examine the issues, consider the risks and plan protective actions."
