Intentional food contamination a cause for concern
Article Abstract:
There were two articles in the Journal of the American Medical Association for Aug 6, 1997, about bioterrorism. The Dalles, OR, incident in 1984 was attributed to followers of the Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh and the other incident occurred in a Texas medical center in 1996. There should be concern about national security and public health although these incidents took place on a small scale.
