See also the July 1994 death of Memphis attorney Stanley Huggins, certainly NOT an anthrax death. He went from robust and healthy, jogging on one Memphis morning, taking a commercial airline flight to a conference in Delaware, to deceased less than 24 hours later, in what was said to have been a case of viral pneumonia.
Such a strain of viral pneumonia, capable of infecting and killing a robust and healthy 46-year-old man in such a short timespan, would certainly make a viable biowarfare agent- if that was not its origin in the first place.

Here is another monkey wrench - The CDC is thought of as a civilian agency, but unbeknownst to most -- virtually all of the major policy and professional appointments at the CDC are staffed by MILITARY officers. This is described in the official gov't handbook on U.S. federal agencies. If you want a copy I can send it to you.
