The best generic response to biowarfare is hygenic. If everybody has a
.22 micron air filter gas mask and plenty of mosquito repellent and
insecticide no disease will spread. We don't have that now, but we
certainly could. The big risk is that the first assault is an end-of-
civilization one. I expect somebody, somewhere, will use biowarfare
this century but as long as the first strike isn't too bad we will end
up OK.
