Description

Orrin G. Hatch (ed). Hearing on concerns arising from the interstate transportation of human pathogens. Very dangerous, deadly organisms which cause diseases & death in human beings are available for purchase across State lines not only by those with a legitimate use for them, but by anyone else. These organisms include the agents that cause the bubonic plague, anthrax, & other diseases. The Federal Government has less stringent regulations on their transport than on the transport of pathogens causing disease in plants & animals. Some of the biological agents may be usable as weapons of mass destruction by terrorists & access to them should be regulated.
