Gotham's Bioterror Challenge

Tevi Troy joins the Manhattan Institute's Paul Howard to discuss a dreaded scenario: a bioterror attack in New York City. Gotham's status as a cultural and financial center makes it a more desirable target than any other city in the world. Of all the threats the city faces, a biological attack may be the most terrifying.  Due its size, density, and transportation complexity bioterror would present a significant challenge. Luckily, New York's unmatched police and counterterror forces—along with federal agencies—remain ever vigilant to keep residents and visitors safe. Tevi Troy is a presidential historian, former White House aide, and former deputy secretary of Health and Human Services. His latest book is Shall We Wake the President? Two Centuries of Disaster Management from the Oval Office.
