The problem with self-defense against biochemical warfare is that there is, in fact, very little that we can do against it. This is the classic case of public goods versus privatization -- the government is simply better suited to protect us than we are to protect ourselves. The government has to be proactive in destroying all peoples who harbor ill-will toward the U.S., because biochemical warfare will prove to be the nuclear bomb of our time.

BS screw the gov.org when it comes to protecting us. ANY type of antibiotic would do wonders if used imediatly after being infected. It might not save your life but it will increase the odds of you surviving.Problem is by the time we know we have been infected it is usually too late for anything to do any good. If gov.org wanted to protect us we would all have high quality surgeon masks(which are cheap and in abundant supply) and antibiotics in our medicine cabinets

Anyone who remembers NBC (Nuclear, biological, chemical) training from the military realizes how futile it is to expect you can protect yourself for any period of time.
