Bioterrorism: Homeland Defense: The Next Steps. An Executive Summary of the RAND Symposium

Abstract

An objective of the Symposium was to bring together federal, state, and county officials and experts from the private sector to focus on homeland defenses against bioterrorism as may be needed in Los Angeles County. It is recognized that for any such defenses to be effective, they must be coordinated between relevant agencies within each level of government The speakers and the participants selected for the Symposium, thus, represent a variety of agencies at all levels of government (See the RAND web site for a listing of the participants.)
