Chemical and Biological Threat

(22 min.) This program is going to examine the chemical and biological terrorism threat and what businesses and individuals can do to prepare for such an event. We're not going to discuss the political climate or what governments are doing to reduce the threat, as this may take months or years to perfect. Our goal is to make you aware of potential threats and offer some basic ideas on preparing for reducing the exposure. Let's begin with taking a look at some of the basic aspects of chemical and biological threats, what they are, and what we can do to protect ourselves.

Topics covered in this safety video include: chemical and biological weapons, target threat, anthrax, goal of terrorist, preparedness, the chemical threat, symptoms of chemical weapons, homeland threats, and what you can do personally to help reduce the threat and protect yourself from chemical and biological terrorism.

Program comes with a CD-ROM of written materials, including test questions and answers. English title also includes PowerPoint presentation.
