War operations involving biological weapons - what does this mean

War operations involving biological weapons can cause the spread of infectious diseases such as anthrax, botulism, and plague. these diseases are caused by bacteria or viruses that can be released into the environment, resulting in infection and illness in humans and animals.

What happens during the disease - war operations involving biological weapons

War operations involving biological weapons can lead to the release of pathogenic microorganisms into the environment, leading to the spread of infectious diseases. these pathogens can be inhaled, ingested, or come into contact with the skin, leading to the development of a range of symptoms depending on the type of disease agent released. in some cases, the disease may be fatal, depending on the virulence of the pathogen and the ability of the person affected to mount an effective immune response.
