Retired CIA officer Charles “Sam” Faddis, reminds us that the threat from bioterrorism is very real and not new. In fact, as he explains in the segment below from the Center’s recent webinar on the subject, Jihadists have been researching using biological agents for some time. Extensive data was uncovered on terrorist computer hard drives in Afghanistan and Syria demonstrating such research on weaponizing anthrax and the bubonic plague, both of which are far more lethal than the Wuhan virus. America must learn from the mistakes of the current pandemic to prepare–and prevent–terrorists from attacking us with bioterrorism.

Sam Faddis contributed a chapter on bioterrorism to the Center’s popular book “Defending Against Biothreats.”  Click HERE to purchase a copy on Amazon.com.
