UK Government, again: Emergency Planning Coordination Unit - Deliberate Release
05 February 2003 
"
Guidelines for action in the event of a deliberate release
The nerve agents are a group of particularly toxic chemical warfare agents. They are chemically related to organophosphorus insecticides. The principal agents in this group are tabun (GA), soman (GD), sarin (GB), GF and VX.Nerve agents
Sarin and VX I've heard of, but the others?
Severe symptoms: such as respiratory difficulty, convulsions and ventricular arrhythmias
Admit casualties to ITU or equivalent wards; administer antidotes; supplemental oxygen should be administered, excess secretions may require removal by suction; ventilate if necessary; monitor red blood cell cholinesterase daily until symptoms improve; it is vital to treat the symptoms and not be lead by the cholinesterase concentration
Oh shit.
What an awful death! Your nerve endings kill-ya-ass!
