Protective Measures Against CBRN Threats

Protective measures against CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear) threats involve steps to prevent exposure and reduce harm. These include using specialized protective clothing and masks to block harmful agents, maintaining safe distances, and applying decontamination procedures to remove or neutralize dangerous substances. Authorities also use detection equipment to identify threats early, along with strict protocols for controlled evacuation, sheltering in place, and medical treatment. Education and training ensure individuals know how to respond effectively, and coordinated emergency plans help contain and minimize the impact of CBRN incidents on people and the environment.
