Diving locations can pose various risks to divers. Health problems can be caused by, among other things, pathogenic microorganisms as well as flora and fauna endemic to the region. This paper discusses the consequences of exposure to biological pathogens endemic to the Red Sea region and possible preventive measures that can be taken before and during a diving expedition.

Akweny nurkowe mogą stwarzać różnego typu zagrożenia dla osób nurkujących. Problemy zdrowotne mogą być spowodowane m. in. drobnoustrojami chorobotwórczymi oraz florą i fauną występującymi endemicznie w danym regionie. W pracy omówiono konsekwencje narażenia na biologiczne czynniki chorobotwórcze, endemicznie występujące w rejonie Morza Czerwonego oraz możliwości działań profilaktycznych przed i podczas wyprawy nurkowej.

In the paper the risks to which the patient is exposed while receiving a medical service have been analyzed. All treatments related to blood collection from the patient deserve much attention. It consists of a number of principles and procedures regarding the patient's health safety as well as safety of a person providing this service. Prevention and preventive actions in the aspect of patient safety in the face of threats resulting from the nature of medical services provided are a priority. Due to preventive action it is possible to avoid the effects of exposure to biological hazards, including the possibility of becoming infected with HIV, HCV and HBV. In the paper the results of a questionnaire survey carried out in selected blood stations of the Śląskie Voivodeship have been presented. The questionnaire is able to collect the information about patient awareness on the risks of the medical service (blood collection).

W artykule przedstawiono zagrożenia związane z bioterroryzmem. Zaprezentowano rys historyczny oraz opisano możliwe drogi przeprowadzania takich ataków. Sklasyfikowano najgroźniejsze patogeny i zaprezentowano najniebezpieczniejsze jednostki chorobowe. Przedstawiono wybrane metody detekcji i identyfikacji zagrożeń bronią biologiczną. Zaprezentowano opracowany na Politechnice Gdańskiej system bezprzewodowego monitoringu zagrożeń bezpieczeństwa, który może wpłynąć na poziom bezpieczeństwa poprzez wczesne wykrywanie zagrożeń biologicznych.

Bioterrorism is a relatively new phenomenon in the contemporary world. Biological agents may contaminate air, water, food and things used every day with vegetative or resting forms of microbes (germs). The threat of bioterrorist attack through food should be treated with priority in the defence strategy of the state due to the ease of conducting such an attack, possibility to inflict massive human losses and causing secondary negative economic and social effects. The most dangerous form of a bioterrorist attack is an aerosol variant or spraying an agent in ventilation systems. However, it is also hazardous for terrorists themselves. Spraying a biological agent causes fast and massive illnesses and high fatality rate due to the agent’s inhaling and developing illnesses in lungs. In order to fight the effects of a bioterrorist attack, it is crucial to detect early the biological agent used using remote bio-detection method which enables applying immediately prevention steps such as vaccines or antibiotics with a wide treatment spectrum. Network programs and services of local and global range allow monitoring the epidemics (GIDEON, RSVP, ProMed). There has been a great progress recently in research of new biological agents identification technologies, thus contributing to effective fight with biological threats.
