biodefense vaccines

Biodefense vaccines are designed to protect people from biological threats, such as bacteria, viruses, or toxins that could be used in biological warfare or terrorism. These vaccines help the immune system recognize and fight off specific pathogens, reducing the risk of illness. They can be targeted against diseases like anthrax or smallpox. By preparing the population and military personnel with these vaccines, we enhance national security and public health, ensuring readiness to respond effectively to potential biological attacks.
