bioterrorism threat

Bioterrorism involves the deliberate release of harmful biological agents, such as bacteria, viruses, or toxins, to cause illness, fear, or societal disruption. These agents can be dispersed through the air, water, or food, and may lead to outbreaks of disease, strain healthcare systems, and create panic. The threat requires vigilance, rapid detection, and preparedness to prevent or contain potential attacks. Governments and organizations work to identify vulnerabilities, develop vaccines and treatments, and implement security measures to reduce risks associated with bioweapons.
