Chemical Terrorist Attack Warnings
Taxonomy Code: TH-2100.8300-150
Programs that issue warnings regarding potential terrorist incidents involving the intentional release of chemical agents with the objective of doing harm. Included may be chemical weapons developed for military use; toxic industrial and commercial chemicals that are produced, transported and stored in the making of petroleum, textiles, plastics, fertilizers, paper, foods, pesticides, household cleaners and other products; or chemical toxins of biological origin such as ricin. Warnings identify the type of health hazard involved; the area likely to be affected (if known); steps that people can take to protect themselves, e.g., sheltering in place; the etiology, symptoms, preventive measures, screening/diagnostic procedures and/or treatment or management of illnesses or other health conditions victims may acquire as a result of an attack; and the types and location of appropriate medical facilities.
