Granted, this article is on Huff Post but this is a very good article explaining how to deal with the Hazardous side. How it is to wear one of the full anti-contamination suits. Also gives some common sense things to think about without the normal political BS.

    The core of the problem:
    "What we don't have is a health care system that values preventative care. What we don't have is an equal playing field between nurses and physicians and allied health professionals and patients. What we don't have is a culture of health where we work symbiotically with one another and with the technology that was created specifically to bridge communication gaps, but has in so many ways failed. What we don't have is the social culture of transparency, what we don't have is a stopgap against mounting hysteria and hypochondria, what we don't have is nation of health literate individuals. We don't even have health-literate professionals. "

    An excellent civilian account!!!!
    I spent 3 years in frontline Radioactive DECON, and auxiliary Chemical and Biological DECON in the Air Force. I really like the simplicity beyond complexity approach of the article.
