Hazmat Question

According to the FBI:

"A weapon crosses the WMD threshold when the consequences of its release overwhelm local responders".

According to the US Armed Forces:

Weapons that are capable of a high order of destruction and/or of being used in such a manner as to destroy large numbers of people. Weapons of mass destruction can be high explosives or nuclear, biological, chemical, and radiological weapons, but exclude the means of transporting or propelling the weapon where such means is a separable and divisible part of the weapon.

And as far as spreading AIDS by having hundreds of one night stands in a year:

Infection is unlikely in a single encounter. High rates of infection have been linked to a pattern of overlapping long-term sexual relationships. This allows the virus to quickly spread to multiple partners who in turn infect their partners. A pattern of serial monogamy or occasional casual encounters is associated with lower rates of infection.

So there is no way an AIDS infected person, could meet the threshold of WMD, simply by sexual relations.

Terrorism: the systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion

I'm sorry, but you have nothing to be afraid of because a man is going around sleeping with hundreds of women to spread AIDS. The women are making a consious choice to be promiscuious and have the one night stands. And what is it he is trying to get out of the deal? Where is the coercion?

It meets neither definition.
