Gee, Lady Lou, if I told you all the industry secrets and about what I NOW see on my RADAR, you might be tempted to start building / digging shelters like folks did in the 50's. Seriously!
The world is rapidly becoming a dangerous place. Talk with some "well connected" health professionals that get updates from the CDC and certain government agencies that brief 'first responders' on the CBW threat - along with other possible threats.
One consolation, that region, is, IMHO, one of the more safer regions.
KUDOS (:
