Bioterrorism Risk

Bioterrorism is the use of biological warfare agents which harms mankind.A biological agent is a bacterium, virus, protozoan, parasite, or fungus that can be used consciously as a weapon in bioterrorism. In extension to these living or replicating pathogens, toxins and biotoxins are also comprised among the bio-agents. Biological agents are generally found in the natural environment and as a result found in many work sectors. They include bacteria, viruses, fungi (including yeasts and moulds) and internal human parasites (endoparasites). The majority of these agents are harmless however some may have potential to cause ill health.The following are the forms of the bioagents threat:
1. Direct and indirect physical contact pathways
2. Person-to-surface transfer rates
3. Person-to-person transfer rates
4. Airborne pathways
The risk of bioterror attacks could be more in the extended prospective so we should take responsible measures/standards to reduce the bioagent threats.
