1. Raise community awareness about increased immigrants to the population.
2. Hold public forums to educate the community about coping with psychological effects.
3. Hold public forums to educate the community about taping windows in the event of a chemical attack.
4. Raise community awareness about the signs and symptoms of potential biologic agents.
5. Conduct training sessions to review preventive measures in the event of a biologic attack.
Answer: 2, 4, 5
Explanation: 2. Holding public forums to educate the community about coping with psychological effects from terrorist threats, raising community awareness about signs and symptoms of potential biologic agents, and conducting training sessions to review preventive measures in the event of a biologic attack provides information for the community to act if a terrorist attack occurs. Raising community awareness about immigrants in the community is stereotyping. Taping windows is not necessarily the most effective method of protection in a chemical attack.
