Chemical Biological Defense Program (CBDP)

The Chemical Biological Defense Program (CBDP) is a government initiative focused on protecting against threats from chemical and biological agents—dangerous substances that could be used in warfare or terrorism. It involves developing detection methods, protective equipment, medical countermeasures, and research to understand these agents better. The goal is to ensure the safety of military personnel, first responders, and the public by preventing, detecting, and responding effectively to chemical and biological threats. The program emphasizes research, innovation, and preparedness to mitigate the impact of these potentially harmful agents.
