Volume 20: Strengthening National Public Health Preparedness and Response to Chemical, Biological and Radiological Agent Threats
Abstract

Training programs for first responders do not adequately address the psychological effects of biological and chemical terrorism. Bioterrorism, being one of the most complex forms of terrorist attack, affects in remarkable ways the life of both survivors and first responders due to the very high impact of uncertainness of the consequences of the event. Cooperation with multidisciplinary experts such as psychologists, chemists, and toxicologists, will certainly enhance support and education for first responders.
