British Response: Decontamination Units To Aid Terror Attack Victims Mobile decontamination units that will serve to aid victims in the event of a chemical, biological or nuclear terror attack have been purchased by British authorities and will be delivered within days, Agence France-Presse reported today (see GSN, Nov. 8). The units — which have the capability to decontaminate up to 200 people per hour and contain large tents that house walk-through showers and dressing areas — are similar to those stationed at airports and major cities within in the United States, according to AFP. Eighty of the vehicles have been purchased at a cost of $92 million and will be stationed across England and Wales (Agence France-Presse, May 29).
