Fort Detrick, Frederick, MD Fort Detrick, Frederick, MD FACT SHEET as of February 2018 Background: Fort Detrick encompasses approximately 1,200 acres divided among three areas in Frederick, Md. Area A is the largest, comprised of approximately 800 acres, and the primary area of construction activity. Most of the Fort Detrick facilities, tenants, post housing, and community facilities are located in Area A. The Forest Glen Annex, Silver Spring, Md., also falls under the operational control of Fort Detrick. The current Corps of Engineers design/construction program on Fort Detrick is approximately $724 million, featuring the $678-million U.S. Army Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) Replacement project, the only Department of Defense high-containment biological laboratory. Fort Detrick, originally named Camp Detrick until 1956, was established in 1931 as a military training airfield named after Maj. Frederick Detrick, a squadron surgeon. In 1943, the U.S. Biological Laboratories were established, pioneering efforts in decontamination, gaseous sterilization and agent purification. In 1969, Fort Detrick’s biological warfare research center mission was terminated and 69 acres of the installation were transferred to the Department of Health and Human Services to conduct cancer research. The installation has now matured into a multi-interagency campus (four cabinet level tenants) focusing on advanced bio-medical research and development, medical materiel management, and long-haul telecommunications for the White House, Department of Defense, and other governmental agencies. The National Interagency Biodefense Campus (NIBC) is currently the focal point of all activities on the installation, and the new USAMRIID project is the cornerstone of the campus.

  • Bioterrorism, Biological Weapons and Anthrax
    Bioterrorism, Biological Weapons and Anthrax Part IV Written by Arthur H. Garrison Criminal Justice Planning Coordinator Delaware Criminal Justice Council Bioterrorism and biological weapons The use of bio-terrorism and bio-warfare dates back to 6th century when the Assyrians poisoned the well water of their enemies. The goal of using biological weapons is to cause massive sickness or death in the intended target. Bioterrorism and biological weapons The U.S. took the threat of biological weapons attack seriously after Gulf War. Anthrax vaccinations of U.S. troops Investigating Iraq and its biological weapons capacity The Soviet Union manufactured various types of biological weapons during the 1980’s • To be used after a nuclear exchange • Manufacturing new biological weapons – Gene engineering – creating new types of viruses/bacteria • Contagious viruses – Ebola, Marburg (Filoviruses) - Hemorrhagic fever diseases (vascular system dissolves) – Smallpox The spread of biological weapons after the fall of the Soviet Union •Material • Knowledge and expertise •Equipment Bioterrorism and biological weapons There are two basic categories of biological warfare agents.

  • Historical Background of the US Biowarfare Program
    Historical Background of the US Biowarfare Program In light of the current FBI/Patriot Act investigations against Critical Art Ensemble (CAE), it is worthwhile to point out two moments from the history of the US government’s involvement in biowarfare. The first concerns the specific issue of access to knowledge, education, and resources in the life sciences. The second concerns the general backdrop of US biodefense ideology. All of this information has been confirmed by several sources, and has been in the public domain for some time (see the references below). Needless to say, this is not meant to be a comprehensive “history” of biowarfare. Instead, it is a perspective on biowarfare from the vantage point of US involvement. What is evident is that the US government’s involvement in biowarfare raises far more substantial questions than the investigation of dissenting artists. - Eugene Thacker ([email protected]) 1. US Biological Warfare Program Simulant Field Tests, 1949-68 Although the particulars of the investigation against CAE have not been made clear, the charges made against them surround particular strains of bacteria which Steve Kurtz was culturing: Serratia marcescens and Bacillus globigii. As has been noted, both bacteria are non-lethal, commonly found in wind-blown dust or the soil, and are often used for educational purposes in biology labs across the US. They have also been used by the US biological warfare program. A short chronology follows: 1942: The War Research Service is created to oversee the creation of a US biological warfare program, partially in response to intelligence concerning possible biowarfare programs in Germany and Japan.

  • Adventists and Biological Warfare
    Adventists and Biological Warfare Spectrum magazine, vol. 25, no. 3 (Mar. 1996), pages 35-50. © 2002 Spectrum/AAF. All rights reserved. By Krista Thompson Smith Krista Thompson Smith is currently pursuing graduate studies in political science at the University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands. She originally wrote this essay for the history seminar at Walla Walla College, led by Professor Terrell Gottschall. For 20 years, Seventh-day Adventist noncombatant servicemen participated in defensive biological warfare research for the United States Army. The program, based at Fort Detrick, Maryland, was known as Project Whitecoat. Approximately 2,200 Adventists volunteered for medical research experiments. Another 800 assisted in the program as laboratory technicians, ward attendants, and clerks.1 Both the Adventist Church and the Army praised this project highly. Members of Congress, scientists, and the press criticized the Adventist Church’s involvement. Some of the questions raised about this largely forgotten project remain unanswered. Was Project Whitecoat a humanitarian program, devoted solely to the development of vaccines and treatment for disease? Or were critics correct when they charged that the Adventist Church collaborated with the U.S. Army, risked the health of its members, and even supported the development of offensive weapons for conducting germ warfare? Project Whitecoat continues to raise concretely the issue of how the Adventist Church should relate to government and its use of science. In 1953 and 1954, human volunteers participated in a study of Q-fever, known as the CD- 22 program. The success of this project, and the authorization to use volunteers for defensive studies, cleared the way for the establishment of Project Whitecoat.

  • Tularemia Fact Sheet
    Peachtree Street NW, 15th Floor Atlanta, Georgia 30303-3142 Georgia Department of Public Health www.health.state.ga.us TULAREMIA (Rabbit fever, Deer‐fly fever, Ohara disease, Francis disease) Fact Sheet Agent: Francisella tularensis, a small non‐motile gram‐negative coccobacillus. Human disease is primarily associated with 2 of 4 subspecies. The highly virulent F. tularensis subspecies tularensis (type A) is found only in North America. F. tularensis subspecies holarctica (type B) is less virulent and found throughout the Northern hemisphere. Brief Description: The symptoms of this disease are highly variable. Disease begins with fever, headache, malaise, and anorexia, and can be followed by symptoms that fall into six categories. Subspecies and site of entry determine the type/category of disease. Ulceroglandular disease: characterized by an indolent ulcer appearing at the site of infection, accompanied by lymphadenopathy, Glandular disease: suppurative lymphadenopathy that follows infection without ulcer or in which an ulcer was not recognized, Typhoidal disease: primarily septicemia, with a highly fatal course, Pleuropneumonic disease: organisms localize in the lungs and pleura, Oropharyngeal disease: typified by a painful cough and sore throat, accompanied by watery diarrhea, and Oculoglandular disease: the conjunctiva are the site of invasion; disease is usually unilateral, with painful purulent conjunctivitis and regional lymphadenopathy. Reservoir: Numerous wild animals, including rabbits, hares, voles, muskrats, beavers, and various hard ticks. A rodent‐mosquito cycle of subspecies holarctica has been identified in the former Soviet Union. Mode of Transmission: Transmission can occur by tick or insect vector, including the wood tick, Dermacentor andersoni, and the dog tick, D. variabilis, among others.
