To view US information about bioterrorism threats, visit:
CDC's
Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response
resource.
The same page contains information and links about
anthrax,
smallpox
and other
preparedness concerns.
Missouri Homeland Security
Missouri Government
Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services
(formerly Missouri Department of Health)
Emergency and Terrorism response site.
Either of these sites can give you reliable, up to date information about bio-terrorism concerns and appropriate responses. The Missouri State site may respond faster, since so many people are visiting the CDC site.
