Abstract
Prior to the 1998 Vancouver Asian Pacific Economic Summit, emergency physicians were briefed on the possibility of terrorist-related biological or chemical weapons incidents. As part of a training exercise, the “victim” of a chemical weapon attack was brought to our ED. Because of confusion and ignorance, the “victim,” the physician, several members of the ED staff, and a number of other patients also became “casualties.”
