A different type of warfare is emerging from the shadows of the world. Battle is not with bullets, bombs, or grenades, but rather with weapons that are invisible, silent, and deadly. Bioterrorism. A word that is growing more popular with each passing day and is causing fear, anxiety, and uncertainty in the lives of many Americans. How can we protect ourselves from microscopic germs, bacteria, viruses, and chemicals? Defense lies in knowledge! Through this website, we hope to provide sufficient information and resources to heighten the public's awareness of bioterrorism. Teachers, especially, face the difficult responisbility of educating our children about this frightening threat...correcting their misconceptions, soothing their fears, and enhancing their understanding. We hope this website will ease the challenges of accomplishing these tasks within the classroom. We are battling an invisible enemy. Arm yourself with knowledge. Protection is only a click away.... |
