     Biological weapons are a real part of any nation's strategic arsenal and
arsenal of sabotage (covert use or terrorism). For example, Soviet doctrine 
was to use biological weapons after a nuclear attack. The nuclear attack 
would destroy hospitals, doctors, and medicines. Radiation damages the immune
system. It would cause "many unburied corpses" to litter the land, and would 
encourage people to huddle together in crowded fallout shelters. The confines 
of a fallout shelter are an ideal place for an epidemic disease to spread. A
fallout shelter would qualify as what I call a "disease reactor", an optimal
environment for multiple disease organisms to run rampant, exchange genes, and
acquire new resistence to limited (first line) treatments.
