Center for Disease Control Investigating Second Anthrax Case By Chris Dolmetsch
Very interesting, I can't find this story _anywhere_ other than the URL you posted. It should be white-hot news, because two airborne anthrax infections in the same region, where the terrorists trained, is either an enormous, outrageous coincidence, or a biological attack. Too bad that, like the smallpox vaccine, the anthrax vaccine isn't available to civilians. "We won't vaccinate you!" seems like not the optimal way to fight bioterrorism. Maybe if enough people die from it, there will be a black market in vaccines to meet the obvious demand. Maybe people will go to jail for having the wrong antibodies. FORTUNATELY, this stuff is not contagious. Either you have it or you don't. If there was an attack, it's too late to do anything about it, as far as I can tell from reading on the 'net.
