FBI’s Weapons of Mass Destruction Directorate’s Community Medical Program

The Medical Community Program was developed in response to the observed lack of understanding and recognition of a weapon of mass destruction (WMD) threat and/or incident, to include chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosives (CBRNE). If a CBRNE attack occurs, the first cases of illnesses/injuries may be initially diagnosed by medical community professionals. U.S. hospital workers and first responders are on the front lines for recognizing and detecting patient exposure to dangerous pathogens, toxins, chemicals, or radiological materials. This program allows the FBI to partner with health care workers to plan for, detect, mitigate, and respond to potential CBRNE threats or incidents within their community.
