    I feel as if - even with how difficult it would have been - it would have been more practical and easier to seal off the maternity wards. At least the ones in the major cities likely to get gassed.

    Presumptuous. Maybe it would have been too hard. I can’t imagine giving birth, or assisting, in one of those. Much less surgery. They must have sealed sections of buildings.

      I’d love to see the sealing that can stop german high explosive dropped from planes.

      you gotta realize that nbc attacks are often hybrid - force the population out of shelter with bombs, then follow-up with chemical agents…

      it’s never as simple as tony thinks. reality isn’t elegant that way.

          lol you might think. do some reading, the history of chemical weapons combat from ww1 to the iraq iran war to the shit we’re seeing in Ukraine is all hybrid bud.

          understand, it’s not about getting max casualties through chemical attacks, it’s about crippling the population with the POTENTIAL for said attacks.

          pfft, why do I even try, you aren’t reading to understand anyway

      If the building was bombed you might have to evacuate through poison-gassy space even if the initial loss of seal didn’t immediately bring in poison.
