CDC Proposes Updates to List of Select Agents and Toxins

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is proposing to update the list of biological agents and toxins that pose a severe threat to public health and safety, as required by the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002. The CDC is also exploring options for graded protection for Tier 1 agents and toxins, which present the greatest risk of deliberate misuse.
