25 people each day die from the Flu and 150 die each day from car accidents. Only 3 people have died from anthrax so far so I wouldn't worry too much and stay healthy, get your flu shoot and go to the doctor as soon as you feel sick. This is about all you can do in addition to staying alert to strange happenings around you?

FAIR ENOUGH...BUT THE FLU IS SOMETHING NATURAL. THIS ANTHRAX IS LIKE HAVING a serial killer visiting our Post Offices. I am not worried....yet....

I understand about the flu figgure, but that is hardly the point. I am outraged at the loss of life to antrax even if only one person died.
It seems to be presented as...ohh just a little matter that is not that serious. When someone dies because someone killed them, and is still attempting to kill more, it is not a little matter. These three did not die of the flu they would still be with their families today had they not been murdered.
I see alot of talk about Antrax, but I am getting pretty put off at so little outrage. American's were attacked and murdered, I'm furious about it. If a person has to add three more to the figgure in NYC and DC to attain outrage then do it.

About 40,000 - 45,000 die each year in car wrecks in the US. Since 9-11, about 5,000 people have been killed in this country in car wrecks. Ive often wondered what would happen if all the news services suddenly started covering car wrecks like they cover major disasters. Would we drive more carefully? Would we be afraid to drive? Would we want the CIA to assassinate drunk drivers?
