REAL reason for Duct Tape and Plastic Sheets

[2Thick]

Don't let the suggestion to by duct tape and plastic to seal off your house from deadly gas fool you. If that really worked, they'd be handing it out to soldiers instead of the multi-thousands-of-dollars-per-unit protective suits. The real reason for the plastic and tape is so that the military will have something to neatly roll the contaminated victim's dead bodies up in for proper disposal once things go bad.

Hey, at least all these idiots that panic & run out to buy stuff like this is helping the economy a little, right?

Could wrap yourself like a mummy in duct tape and it wouldn't make a bit of difference with a nerve agent.

Uh....

I think an article was already posted here saying that bio and chem warfare in the USA was not the danger they claim it is.

Plastic won't do squat to really protect you.

If you are exposed but don't die in the first 2-5 minutes, odds are good you'll survive.

That doesn't mean people won't die from the stuff, but there isn't much you can do to protect yourself when it happens other than to stay indoors and hope it's windy outside.

Your more likely to be struck by lightning twice and then have a piano fall from the sky rendering you comatose only to be diagnosed with "Coffin-Siris Syndrome", than to die from a CBR attack in the U.S.
