Bioterrorism: Bioterrorism is the intentional release of harmful biological agents, that may include bacteria, viruses or germs, with the intent of injuring or killing people, causing panic and disrupting daily routine. Unlike other terrorism, a biological attack could take days or weeks to notice. By the time it is recognized many people may have been affected.
