The purpose of this LSU NCBRT presentation is to provide an overview of the types of biological agents that may be present during a domestic biological incident. Responders may be involved in response to biological incidents. Knowing if an organism is bacterial, viral, fungal, or resulting from a toxin can greatly impact response actions. This information is key both to protecting responders and to preventing further illness in the community.
