Beschreibungen/Notizen
Since the fall of 2001, when the US embarked on a war against terrorism and federal officials started warning about the next plague, there are some events that have not happened: the SARS epidemic, a widespread anthrax outbreak, and smallpox attack. Alcabes argues that no one can tell how the next epidemic will happen, and that national catastrophes rarely happen. He further presents several historical facts of diseases and outbreaks to support his claim.
