El bioterrorismo, ¿es un peligro inminente?

Abstract

La guerra biológica es el uso premeditado de microorganismos, y toxinas, generalmente de origen microbiano, vegetal o animal, para producir enfermedades y muertes entre humanos, ganado y cultivos. La historia ofrece ejemplos de algunas civilizaciones antiguas que utilizaron durante conflictos bélicos elementos de origen biológico para obtener ventajas estratégicas e infligir daño a los enemigos. No obstante, en las últimas décadas, estas técnicas son principalmente imputables a grupos terroristas, que utilizaron armas biológicas como herramienta altamente desestabilizadora para la sociedad, la economía y para la salud pública.

Biological warfare is the premeditated use of microorganisms, and toxins, usually of microbial, vegetable or animal origin, to produce diseases and deaths among humans, livestock and crops. The story offers examples of some ancient civilizations that used during war conflicts elements of biological origin to obtain strategic advantages and inflict damage to enemies. However, in recent decades, these techniques are mainly attributable to terrorist groups, which used biological weapons as a highly destabilizing tool for society, the economy and public health.
