Feds to Deploy Non-Toxic Gas in NYC Transit Locations in Test of Biological Attack Readiness
October 12th, 2021Via: NBC:
New York City’s response plans for a chemical or biological attack will be put to the test in the coming weeks as part of a federal preparedness study.
The MTA says the Department of Homeland Security working alongside a team of researchers and city agencies will deploy a non-toxic gas this month at about 120 locations across the city.
Most of the locations will be above ground, including some parks. A number of below-ground subway stations will also be included, though details on which ones weren’t known.
The tests will be conducted on five separate days between Oct. 18 and 29.

Dates noted, thank you Kevin. Interesting, we use the term ‘Fed/Feds’ for the federal government and for the Federal Reserve. For a moment it struck me as ambiguous, on the other hand, fitting.
