The Biological Weapons Convention (BTWC), signed in 1972 and in force since 1975, prohibits the development, production and stockpiling of biological weapons. However, the existence of biological research laboratories in several countries raises concerns about the potential misuse of these facilities for military purposes. The Dual Nature of Biological Research Biological research has a dual nature, that is, it can be used for both peaceful purposes, such as the development of vaccines and treatments, and for military purposes, such as the creation of biological weapons. The difficulty in distinguishing between defensive and offensive research makes monitoring and controlling these activities a complex challenge. Biological Research Laboratories and the BTWC The BTWC does not prohibit biological research per se, but rather the development of biological weapons. Countries that are signatories to the convention have the right to conduct research for defensive purposes, such as the develo...

Chagas disease, caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, transmitted mainly by vector insects known as "kissing bugs", is a neglected disease that affects millions of people in Latin America. Despite advances in prevention and treatment, Chagas disease still represents a significant public health challenge, with the potential to cause serious long-term heart and digestive problems, leading to death. Transmission and Vectors: The Cycle of Infection The main form of transmission of Chagas disease is vector-borne, through the bite of an infected kissing bug. When feeding on blood, the kissing bug deposits feces containing the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi on the person's skin. The itching caused by the bite leads the person to scratch the area, facilitating the entry of the protozoan into the bloodstream. Other forms of transmission include: Congenital transmission: from mother to child during pregnancy. Contaminated blood transfusion. Organ transplantation from infected don...

Avian influenza, caused by the influenza A virus subtype H5N1, is a disease that primarily affects birds but can also infect humans. Although direct transmission from birds to humans is rare, the high mortality rate in infected humans and the possibility of the virus mutating, making it more transmissible between humans, is a major global concern. Transmission and Reservoir: Birds as Vectors The H5N1 virus is highly contagious among birds, especially domestic birds such as chickens and ducks. Transmission occurs through direct contact with infected birds, their secretions and droppings. Wild migratory birds can also spread the virus to different regions. Transmission to humans occurs primarily through close contact with infected birds, such as on poultry farms or live poultry markets. Human-to-human transmission is rare, but the possibility of the virus mutating, making it more transmissible between humans, is a major concern. Symptoms and Disease Progression: A Severe Clinical Picture...

Hantavirus is a genus of viruses transmitted by infected rodents, representing a threat to public health in many parts of the world. Hantavirus infection can lead to two serious syndromes: Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS) and Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome (HFRS), both with high mortality rates. Transmission and Reservoirs: Rodents as Vectors Hantaviruses are transmitted to humans primarily through inhalation of aerosols containing viral particles present in the urine, feces or saliva of infected rodents. Transmission can also occur through direct contact with infected rodents, bites or ingestion of contaminated food or water. Several species of rodents can serve as reservoirs for different types of hantavirus. The species of rodent involved varies according to the geographic region. Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS): The Respiratory Threat HPS is a severe acute respiratory syndrome characterized by: Fever Muscle aches Cough Shortness of breath Pulmonary edema (fluid buildu...

Marburg virus, a member of the Filoviridae family that is the same as Ebola, is a highly contagious pathogen that causes viral hemorrhagic fever with alarming mortality rates. Although less well-known than its more famous relative, Marburg poses a significant public health threat, with the potential to cause devastating outbreaks. The History of Marburg: A Terrifying Discovery Marburg virus was first identified in 1967 during simultaneous outbreaks in Marburg and Frankfurt, Germany, and in Belgrade, Serbia. The outbreaks were traced to infected African green monkeys imported from Uganda for research laboratories. Since then, sporadic outbreaks of Marburg have occurred primarily in Africa, with the most recent and concerning outbreak in Equatorial Guinea in 2023. Transmission and Reservoir: The Mystery of Origin The natural reservoir of Marburg virus has not yet been fully identified, but African fruit bats of the species Rousettus aegyptiacus are considered the prime suspects. Transmis...

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rare and fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by prions, infectious proteins that affect the brain. CJD causes progressive dementia, loss of motor coordination, and eventually death. The variant form of CJD (vCJD), linked to the consumption of beef contaminated with bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), known as "mad cow disease", raised great concern in the 1990s. What are Prions? Prions are infectious proteins that cause neurodegenerative diseases by causing normal brain proteins to fold abnormally. This abnormal folding leads to the formation of protein aggregates that damage brain cells, causing degeneration of brain tissue. Forms of CJD CJD can manifest itself in different ways: Sporadic CJD (aJCJD): The most common form, accounting for about 85% of cases. AJCJD occurs when the normal prion protein spontaneously folds abnormally, with no known cause. Familial CJD (fCJD): An inherited form of the disease, accounting for about 10-15...

Lassa fever is a viral hemorrhagic fever endemic to West Africa, caused by the Lassa virus, an arenavirus transmitted by infected rodents. Although less well-known than other viral hemorrhagic fevers such as Ebola, Lassa fever poses a significant public health threat in the region, with the potential to cause severe outbreaks and impact entire communities. Transmission and Reservoir: The Rodent as Vector Lassa virus is transmitted to humans primarily through contact with urine or feces of infected rodents, especially the multimammal rat Mastomys natalensis. Transmission can occur through ingestion of contaminated food, inhalation of aerosols, or direct contact with wounds or mucous membranes. Human-to-human transmission is also possible through contact with bodily fluids of infected patients. Symptoms and Disease Progression: A Variable Clinical Picture Symptoms of Lassa fever usually appear 1 to 3 weeks after exposure to the virus and can range from mild to severe. Initial symptoms ar...

The bubonic plague, also known as the Black Death, is an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis. Responsible for decimating millions of people in the Middle Ages, the bubonic plague still persists in some regions of the world, posing a risk to public health. The History of the Bubonic Plague: An Ancient Scourge The bubonic plague is an ancient disease, with evidence of its existence in historical records dating back thousands of years. However, the bubonic plague became known as the Black Death because of the pandemic that ravaged Europe during the Middle Ages, in which it decimated millions of people. The Black Death had a devastating impact on European society, altering the social, economic and cultural structure of the time. Transmission and Symptoms: A Highly Contagious Disease The bubonic plague is transmitted through the bite of fleas from infected rodents, such as rats and squirrels. The bacterium Yersinia pestis multiplies in the flea's body and is trans...

Rabies is a viral disease that attacks the central nervous system, causing acute encephalitis. Transmitted by bites from infected animals, rabies is almost always fatal after the onset of symptoms, which include aggressiveness, hydrophobia and paralysis. Despite being an old and well-known disease, rabies still represents a major challenge to global public health, especially in regions with high populations of stray animals and lack of access to vaccines. The History of Rabies: An Ancient Disease Rabies is an ancient disease, with records of its existence dating back to ancient times. Throughout history, rabies has caused countless epidemics and pandemics, decimating entire populations and leaving a trail of terror and suffering. The disease is mentioned in ancient texts from Mesopotamia, Egypt and Greece, and was known as hydrophobia due to the fear of water that affects patients. Symptoms and Transmission: A Silent and Deadly Disease Rabies is caused by the rabies virus, which belong...

Smallpox, a highly contagious and devastating viral disease, has left a profound mark on human history. Eradicated in 1980 thanks to a global vaccination campaign, smallpox still haunts the scientific community and the world population, mainly due to its potential for resurgence and the fear of its use as a biological weapon. The History of Smallpox: An Ancient Disease Smallpox is an ancient disease, with evidence of its existence in Egyptian mummies dating back more than 3,000 years. Throughout history, smallpox has caused countless epidemics and pandemics, decimating entire populations and leaving deep physical and emotional scars. Symptoms and Transmission: A Highly Contagious Disease Smallpox is caused by the Variola major virus and is highly contagious, transmitted through respiratory droplets, direct contact with infected bodily fluids or contaminated objects. Symptoms of smallpox include: High fever Malaise Muscle aches Skin rashes that develop into pustules (pus-filled blisters...

Ebola is a highly contagious and deadly viral hemorrhagic fever that has ravaged communities in Africa for decades. Caused by a virus in the Filoviridae family, Ebola is transmitted to humans by infected wild animals, such as fruit bats, and spreads from person to person through direct contact with infected bodily fluids, such as blood, saliva, vomit, and semen. Symptoms and Disease Progression Symptoms of Ebola usually appear 2 to 21 days after exposure to the virus and include: High fever Severe headache Muscle aches Weakness Vomiting and diarrhea Abdominal pain Rash Internal and external bleeding The disease progresses rapidly and devastatingly. The virus attacks multiple organs and systems of the body, causing multiple organ failure and shock. The mortality rate for Ebola is extremely high, ranging from 25% to 90%, depending on the outbreak and access to adequate medical care. Transmission and Prevention Ebola is highly contagious and spreads easily in environments with poor hygien...
