Temporal Features in Biological Warfare [PDF]
No matter how prepared a population may be, bioterrorism cannot be prevented: the first clues will always be given by ill people. Temporal analysis applied to this type of scenarios could be an additional tool for limiting disruption among civilians allowing for recognizing typical temporal progression and duration of symptoms in first infected people.
