Weaponized means it was genetically modified in a labaoritory so as to have different charactarisics than natural form. Could have much longer incubation period, not respond to traditional antibiotics, have different means of transmittal, possibly human to human,etc.

Mr. Stevens' anthrax cultures showed it was sensitive (responded to) the usual antibiotics, including penicillin. Unfortunately, his case was too far advanced for the antibiotics to help him.
