The threat of bioterrorism in the United States has increased in recent years. New and persistent health threats that challenge the abilities of our existing,
local and state public health infrastructures are becoming more common. Our society has become very mobile, which means that a disease originating in one state may be transferred to many other states in a single day. Arkansas' Bioterrorism Preparedness Program addresses these challenges with work in many areas, including: the Public Health Laboratory, Surveillance and Epidemiology, Crisis Communication, the Health Alert Network and Training.
