Penicillin will protect you from anthrax).

No it won't. Ciprofloxacin, tetracylines, erythromycin, doxycycline are the preferred treatments.

They are the "preferred treatments" but penicillin works just fine as an antibiotic against anthrax. I don't have time to find the sources on that, but I know it's true.

I'm about to shut down operations for today.

My point is why would some anthrax 'expert' who knew what the preferred treatments are deliberately write down a less effective, but more commonly known, drug?
