For every incontrovertible there exists its negative, and the balance to many of the amazing discoveries that scientists have do over the centuries in regards to how the human body works, is the knowledge of how to chatter pain upon it. This art has been studied, revised, and tested to reach todays level of weaponized germs. This paper will cover, in as more than depth as I lot manage, the different agents apply in biological war, the structural and chemical reasons for which they were chosen, and their adverse give on the human body.
Many primitive forms of biological warfare emerged long before those involved could grasp the ramifications. In 600 BC, the Assyrians would toxicant enemy rise ups with a fungus that caused them to suffer from delusions. These were, more than likely, hallucinogens alike(p) to the modern cylocybin cubensis, or psychedelic mushroom. They would have contained high amounts of psilocin and psilocin, which are naturally occurring compounds that affect the brain directly and cause changes in perception and a distorted sense of time. You can see how this would create the perfect setting for an attack on its disabled victims.




Just before the bubonic plague plaguey known as the Black Death emerged, Mongol and Turkish armies were reported to have catapulted disease-laden animal corpses into besieged cities, as well as into their water supplies. This became somewhat of a common practice, as it would effectively contaminate and demoralize the occupants of such a city. The last(a) known incident of such tactics occurred in 1710, when Russian forces threw plague-infected corpses into the Swede city of Reval. The problem with this form, is that the disease is spread in an uncontrollable bacteria form. When an infected animal is fed upon by fleas, or other such creatures, certain bacteria are transferred to its new host. This is initially harmless to the flea, until it is regurgitated...If you want to get a full essay, order it on our website: Ordercustompaper.com
