Potential agents
- Bacillus anthracis [r]: The bacterium that causes anthrax. It is a Select Agent and a high-risk biological weapon. [e]
- Anthrax [r]: A naturally occurring disease, caused by Bacillus anthracis, which has been weaponized as a biological weapon and also in bioterrorism [e]

- Coxiella burnetii [r]: The rickettsia that causes Q fever. [e]
- Clostridium botulinum [r]: Gram-positive, anaerobic rod shaped bacterium that produces the neurotoxin botulin, which causes the flaccid muscular paralysis seen in botulism, and is also the main paralytic agent in botox. [e]
- Venezuelan equine encephalitis [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Yersinia pestis [r]: Gram-negative rod-shaped bacterium belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae, that can infect humans and other animals in three main forms: pneumonic, septicemic, and the notorious bubonic plagues. [e]
