28JUL 2026☣️ 'Biological War: A Scenario' is a 2026 nonfiction book by American investigative journalist Annie Jacobsen.
Published in the United States by Dutton on July 28, 2026, the book examines the potential consequences of a large-scale biological attack or the accidental release of an engineered pathogen.
The book uses a fictional near-future catastrophe to describe how governments, health systems, armed forces and civilian populations might respond to the rapid spread of a highly lethal biological agent.
It combines the fictional scenario with accounts of historical biological-weapons programmes,

It is a thematic successor to Jacobsen's 2024 book -
