  1. Avian influenza Foot and mouth disease Exotic Newcastle Bovine spongiform encephalopathy Anthrax Classical swine fever Rift Valley fever Nipah/Hendra virus Potential Livestock BW Agents R3 Emergency Response Conference

  2. Bioterrorism:Why is animal/human health at risk? • Accessibility of infrastructures • Buildings • Water • Food • Accessibility of agents • Most emerging diseases zoonotic • Global travel/trade • Human behavior • Weaponization R3 Emergency Response Conference

  3. Accessibility Crude Adaptor to Modify the Sharpening Wheel into a centrifuge Phillip MacKay from New Zealand Debated with NZ Agricultural Department for 20+ years regarding control of feral rabbits. MacKay and two others introduced RHD into NZ in 1997. MacKay, et al., had perfected transmission by exposing rabbits by direct and lateral exposure. He perfected how to conduct 5-ton carrot drops from helicopters to spread the disease. Genetic anomalies are now being noted in rabbits and some carrion eaters.
