biodefense preparedness

Biodefense preparedness involves planning and implementing measures to prevent, detect, and respond to biological threats, such as terrorists releasing dangerous germs or naturally occurring outbreaks. It includes developing vaccines, stockpiling medicines, training healthcare workers, and creating rapid response systems. The goal is to protect public health, minimize casualties, and ensure quick recovery in case of biological emergencies. Effective biodefense requires collaboration between government agencies, scientists, healthcare providers, and communities to stay ahead of evolving biological risks.
