aOf the Chemical and Biological Defense Program, only Medical Biological Defense has been included in totals for FY2010 and years past. Medical Biological Defense is primarily countermeasures-research oriented, whereas the remainder of the Chemical and Biological Defense Program either is focused on chemical defense or has strictly military applications.
