Abstract

The use of, or the threat of use of, biological agents cannot be neglected and therefore challenges national defence and security measures. The changing landscape represents a set of various challenges and developments including old and new threats and actors, traditional and emerging diseases, emerging disruptive technologies, social-cultural changes and security political changes that will impact natural, accidental and deliberate (NAD) events of biological agents. COVID-19, a natural biological event, has highlighted the second and third effects on the society as a whole. Security and safety measures against biological NADs needs to be a national and global investment, including civilian and military collaboration and the use of technological developments, to strengthen biological preparedness during peacetimes, crises and wartimes.
