Biological warfare is considered to be primarily a strategic weapon.
The major reason for this is that it has no quick-kill effect.
The incubation period of infectious disease, plus a variable period of illness even before a lethal effect, render this weapon unsuitable for hand-to-hand encounter.
A man can be an effective fighting machine throughout the incubation period of most infectious diseases.
Thus, an enemy would probably use this weapon for attack on static population centers such as large cities.
