Bioterrorism Presentation

This slide presentation was designed specifically for internists, family physicians, pediatricians, emergency physicians, and other clinical practitioners who are most likely to encounter symptomatic patients for evaluation and treatment in a bioterrorism incident. Clinical case examples are incorporated throughout the slide show to illustrate how persons who have been exposed to Category A biological agents might initially present at a clinic, doctor's office, or hospital emergency room. We hope you find this information interesting and helpful, and that you will share this presentation and associated materials with your colleagues.
