Terrorism

Disaster preparedness means being prepared for any kind of emergency—natural or man-made, and being prepared means having emergency kits on hand, ready to use when they're needed. It's important to prepare in advance for threats to homeland security and bioterrorism.

Most Americans are confident their food supply is safe from natural contaminants. Even though the federal Center for Disease Control (CDC) estimates that about one person in four contracts a food-borne illness each year, and that 325,000 hospitalizations and 5,000 deaths occur annually due to consumption of inadvertently contaminated food, the public generally believes the food they purchase will not make them sick.

However, Al Qaeda's September 11 attacks and the subsequent anthrax incidents raise an additional concern for America's food supply. Deliberate contamination of the nation's food supply is a real possibility and the economic and psychological implications of an attack on the food supply are sobering. Some foods are more susceptible to deliberate contamination than others, but there is no practical way one can eliminate the possibility of being affected. Emergency kits from SurvivalCenter.us are an important part of disaster preparedness for emergencies resulting from threats to homeland security and bioterrorism.

Although the U.S. homeland security commission is doing what it can to protect the food supply, there is a high likelihood that terrorists will at some point use a bioterrorism attack on our food supply avenue. This could mean local grocery stores won't have food for several weeks while the government sorts out a problem. An emergency kit from SurvivalCenter.us will provide food for you and your family until the nation's food supply is back to normal. That's a sound disaster preparedness plan!

Throughout human history, there have been many threats to the security of nations. These threats have brought about large-scale losses of life, the destruction of property, widespread illness and injury, the displacement of large numbers of people, and devastating economic loss.

Recent technological advances and ongoing international political unrest are components of the increased risk to national security.

We hope it never happens, but with a planning and instruction, you can ensure your family's homeland security preparedness plan will get you through the disaster if it does. Emergency kits from SurvivalCenter.us are an important part of your bioterrorism preparedness plan. Don't wait—put your disaster preparedness plan into effect before disaster strikes.
