Yes. For example, smallpox, a devastating disease that has been eradicated worldwide, still exists in laboratories today. This is a disease that can be used as a bioterrorist attack against other countries. Our world has experienced examples of using disease as weapons as early as the era of the Black Plague, in which corpses inflicted with the horrible plague were ruthlessly catapulted over walls to spread the infectious disease.
No, an effective biological weapon must rapidly produce disabling symptoms. HIV acts much too slowly, not producing any symptoms for decades after the original infection (these symptoms are called AIDS).
Also ideally an effective biological weapon should be able to be spread by air and be very robust and long lived on dry surfaces, HIV can only be spread by direct exchange of infected body fluids (e.g. blood, seminal fluid, vaginal fluid) and is a very fragile virus being destroyed in a couple hours on dry surfaces or exposure to air.
This is a disease organism that can be used as a weapon of war, The purpose is to spread disease through the opposing force, reducing their ability to fight. A well known example would be anthrax, a disease spread by spores.
Invented by French chemist Claude Berthollet, chlorine gas was first used as a weapon by the military during the first World War in 1914. Chlorine gas was first used as a disarming weapon, and later as a fatal poison.
A virus does not cause a disease but it will weapon your immune system and make you more susceptible to contracting diseases.
Yes, it is a broad spectrum used to treat infections such as lyme disease.
the first chemical agent used to treat disease was
Alzheimer's Disease is not known to be caused by an infectious agent. The disease's cause is still being investigated. Even if it were caused by an infectious agent, it would not likely be used for bioterrorism because the disease process tends to be slow.

It was a disease used by the Russians during the cold war as a bio weapon. It is said to turn your insides into liquid in a matter of a week or two
No.
No, it wasn't used as a weapon.
Yes, a chainsaw can indeed be used at a weapon.
A rock was probably the first weapon used

Er...which disease exactly? Different ones have different weapons to fight them and their spread?
Smallpox was used as a biological weapon in the 1600s, when British settlers to America (Pennsylvania) purposefully introduced the disease to Native Americans by giving them blankets that had been contaminated with the virus. The ensuing epidemic killed more than half of the Native American population.
the Apollo 18 was the most used weapon by the Koreans.
