Bioterrorism

Bioterrorism refers to the use of biological agents, such as bacteria, viruses, or toxins, by individuals or groups to intentionally harm or threaten people, animals, or plants. These agents can cause illness or death and can be spread through air, water, or food. The aim is often to instill fear or disrupt society. Governments and health organizations monitor and prepare for potential bioterrorism threats to protect public health and ensure a rapid response in case of an attack. Awareness, preparedness, and effective response systems are crucial in minimizing the risks associated with such incidents.
