In addition, the United States would be affected by the use of BW agents anywhere in the world a strong possibility in the years ahead. Washington probably would be called upon to help contain conflicts or deal wit.h a terrorist attack in which
biological agents were used–either overtly or covertly-or to provide scientific expertise and humanitarian assistance to deal with their effects.
