Bingo! There are now 2 and perhaps 3 cases in less than a week. Going beyond 'normal' occurances.

Ahem... may I point out that, if I read this article correctly, there are perhaps four cases... note mention of another possible down in Florida...

It remained unclear yesterday whether all of the many other patients that CDC investigators have been screening in hospitals in the Lantana area had proven to be free of anthrax. On Friday, an official close to the investigation had said that a third person -- an employee who worked in the AMI building but not for the Sun -- was in a Miami area hospital and was being investigated as a possible anthrax case. That person was not mentioned in yesterday's briefings.

In Prince William County, Jared Florance, the county's health director, said last night that his agency was "investigating" what disease the Northern Virginia man may have contracted. The man's name was not released.

It looks like you are correct that there may be as many as 4 case related to the AMI Building so far.

You're right! I forgot about the other 'possible' in Florida.
