Abstract
This study conducted within the context of COVID-19, empirically examines the historical context of bioterrorism. The objective of the study is to investigate if bioterrorism is a myth or reality, and whether COVID-19 constitutes an act of bioterrorism. Terrorism, which has its roots in political, ideological, and historical motivations, is a crime that has persisted throughout history. The study adopts a qualitative research method to analyze scholarly literature, papers released by international organizations such as the UN' WHO, and so on. The research sheds insight on the Geneva Protocol, the Biological Weapons Convention, and the Patriot Act, all of which were signed to combat bioterrorism. Terrorism is highlighted as the most critical security concern of the twenty-first century as a result of the 9/11 attacks, which have brought it to the forefront of international affairs. In the post-Cold War global political climate, non-traditional security threats providing new challenges to security architecture have been addressed in the current research, as have the mechanics of terrorism, which have grown increasingly intricate since the 9/11 disaster. The findings provide a full understanding of bioterrorism as a reality rather than a myth. The events of bioterrorism that have occurred in history are clear evidence that it is a reality. COVID-19, the act of bioterrorism, advises being prepared to counter any future act of bioterrorism.
