Nuclear Biological & Chemical Protection
 
Nuclear Radiation
Effects of exposure to nuclear radiation are devastating to the human body.  You must make sure that you do not come in direct contact with contaminated materials or persons.  In order to assure this, special protective suits and breathing equipment should be used.  Proper decontamination includes rinsing off your protective suit prior to removing it, or entering a shelter/building and exposing others.

Biological Hazards
Biological Hazards including but not limited to, Germ warfare agents  (such as anthrax, smallpox, ebola, plague) are particularly dangerous, because each has it's own ways to spread and different precautions apply.  In general, until you KNOW what you're dealing with, treat each situation as the worst possible.  This means full body coverage in a protective suit with a high-level filtration system to not allow inhalation of microorganisms which could transmit the disease.

Chemical agents

Have been used a very long time in warfare, most commonly known is tear gas, mustard gas and now sarin and vx.  The common factors among all of these is you do not  want skin contact, you do not want to breathe any of these! If you're in an area where an attack is evident to you...LEAVE!! do not hesitate, get as far upwind of where the attack took place.

What you have to have is proper  protection to ensure none of it gets on you, or it will absorb into the pores of your skin and you will become affected by it anywhere from seconds  to minutes after  exposure. If you extend your exposure to these chemicals or do not decontaminate after coming in contact with  them, you risk your health and the health and safety of those around you. 

 

Below are the items that will help ensure that you do not become a  victim of a gas attack but the most important thing to remember, if something doesn't seem right in an area...LEAVE! and do so  quickly, the less time you spend exposed, the better your chances for survival of a chemical warfare attack.

If you are  exposed, prompt medical treatment is essential to your survival.
