Abstract/Notes Since the anthrax attacks of 2001, Americans have come to realize that bioterror attacks can-and likely will-occur on their own soil. Health care providers would be the first responders to this type of attack and hospitals could be overrun with infected persons. Chiropractic physicians and their employees could be more vulnerable to this type of attack than other providers since many potential bioweapons can cause neuromusculoskeletal (NMS) pain as an early symptom, and because of the anti-vaccine stance of many in the profession. This paper outlines some possible bioterror threats, possible NMS symptoms that DCs may see, and how doctors of chiropractic can be better prepared. .
