Biological weapons? That’s an old story

Tuesday, January 27, 2015 - 15:09

The recent terror attack in Paris has raised the fear in Europe, but the threat regards many countries all over the world. While the French drama was on, in Nigeria more than 2,000 people were killed and in the following days children were loaded with bombs and used as living weapons in the crowd. It is then clear that terrorist groups currently menacing the world have no scruples in using any kind of weapons. In this scenario, even a biological attack is an option that cannot be excluded.

Citizens, Decision Makers, Government and Public Health, Healthcare Professionals, Industry & Commerce, School and Education
