"Without question, the biological threats of the future are increasingly severe. The individual threats are often incomprehensible for nonexperts, as biological warfare can be carried out by using viruses, bacteria, fungi, insects, or plants. Almost all animals are possible vectors, and in the far future, even mechanical products or highly manipulated organisms could also be possible vectors. In addition, synthetic biology, nanotechnology, and DNA manipulation open up a whole new range of possibilities for modifying or even completely rebuilding or recreating viruses and bacteria."

And if that isn't enough: "The latter (personalized biological weapons) spread approximately asymptomatically in the population and only have an effect on certain genetic characteristics of a person or group of people."

Better wake up, folks. There are some out there that want more than just 'deportation'.
