Against the recently accrued risk of bioterrorism, the Biotox plan has been set up in order to take in charge any person that could be facing a potential terrorist contamination. It has to take into consideration the components of bioterrorism, i.e. the incubation period, the function of bacterial or viral agents, the variable number of concerned people, the difficulty of alert launching, and the diagnosis of the responsible agent. This plan relies on hospitals comprising departments of infectious diseases. Those are specifically in charge of informing, organising, and coordinating the reception of people having been in contact or infected by infectious agents, in order to isolate and treat them properly. The recent experience has allowed to test this plan, to precise and correct some of its features.
针对近期出现的生物恐怖主义风险，已制定了生物毒素计划，以便接收任何可能面临潜在恐怖主义污染的人员。该计划必须考虑生物恐怖主义的各个要素，即潜伏期、细菌或病毒制剂的作用、受影响人员数量的变化、警报发布的难度以及对致病因子的诊断。该计划依赖于设有传染病科的医院。这些医院专门负责通报、组织和协调接收接触过或感染了传染因子的人员，以便对他们进行妥善隔离和治疗。最近的经验使该计划得到了检验，对其一些特点进行了明确和修正。
