Only bad viruses. Good viruses will be genetically coded to only harm a particular subgroup.

  I was thinking that actually gives the United States a distinct advantage in such (hypothetical) biological warfare, it has the most diverse gene pool on the planet.

    That seems unlikely, I would expect most African countries to beat the US easily.

  Until they mutate. It is beneficial to the survival of a virus to infect the largest group that it can. A virus targeted to a small group of people has a large "survival benefit" the moment it can mutate to infect everybody. In addition, it's really hard to target a biological entity at a specific subgroup of humans. From a biological standpoint, all humans are damn near identical.
