“Medical library patrons should have ready access to GIDEON, especially for the bioterrorism simulator feature. In a crunch, it could be a lifesaver. … Moreover, it is an excellent example of artificial intelligence, also useful for education. The bioterrorism simulator is a strong reason to have GIDEON available in all medical centers and available to their users from their offices or via wireless from their laptop computers. Not many people have seen the signs and symptoms diseases due to probable bioterrorism agents. GIDEON should also be available to EMS people and local health departments, who could be among the first to use it if there ever is a bioterrorism event.”
