In the event of a biological attack, seal off doors and windows with the specially formulated plastic barrier sheeting - designed to keep out hazardous agents for more than six hours. The manual, "Learn What to do in an Emergency Before the Emergency Happens," provides a wealth of information, including evacuation plans, how to shelter-in-place, how to respond to specific threats and more. The food and water have a shelf life of five years, so you'll be well prepared for the next half-decade.
