Germs, Biowarfare, and the history of Anthrax.
Manage episode 450508940 series 3609577
Hello, poison friends! Hoping you are well this weekend! We need to discuss the history of biowarfare and the agents that have been used both historically and recently. Before that discussion, however, we need to go over some microbiology and the history of illness (bacterial and viral), germ theory, and such. So lets take a dive into some infectious diseases (plague, smallpox, botulism, anthrax, etc.), where they came from, what they can do the body, and how they have been used in war and terrorism. Oh and we will specifically talk about anthrax, since it is likely more commonly known among these agents! But don't worry, there are more to come.
