Description

"When deadly, anthrax-laced letters were sent to government and media offices in the fall of 2001, bioterrorism against American citizens became a grim reality. In this guide, U.S. Senator Bill Frist - the only physician in the Senate and cosponsor of two major pieces of legislation dealing with this frightening new threat - offers straightforward, practical advice on how to keep your loved ones safe. Written in an easy-to-read, question-and-answer format, this reference provides up-to-date and reliable information on biological agents like anthrax and smallpox, the dangers posed by chemical weapons, and the vulnerabilities of our food and water supplies."--BOOK JACKET.
