Bioethics-Biological Weapons

With biotechnology come biological weapons, extremely advanced and more dangerous than ever before.

Details

Should nations be allowed to keep biological weapon stockpiles? There are safe ways to store them, but should we have them at all? What would happen if the weapons fell into the wrong hands? In today’s world, there’s always tension about the capabilities of terrorists. Could they possibly get these weapons? However, if we do not have these stockpiles, how could we potentially protect ourselves?
