*The classification system chosen for this manual consists of the primary Category A and Category B
bioterrorist agents (Section I), as listed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, plus
additional high-consequence livestock pathogens (Section II). These listings are not mutually exclusive,
as some “high consequence livestock pathogens” could be classified as “potential
bioterrorist agents” and vice versa. |
