MSNBC says it is 22 staffers. That must have been sooooooome kinda potent anthrax strain.

Scientists at the Centers for Disease Control and at Ft. Dettrick, Md., described the spores to the FBI as "very high grade anthrax."
And the BBC website is claiming that the Anthrax is 'weapons grade'.

By now, hopefully everyone has figured out that this was NOT some wild soil anthrax picked up in rural OK or TX from sheep droppings. The trail of breadcrumbs leads right to a lab somewhere - and for some reason the government is NOT saying where.

Yeah, I heard it was Grade-A, primo stuff that was used on Daschle's office. It doesn't matter to me that I can't stand his politics, but I would personally administer 'justice' to whoever is responsible for this if I could. This is beyond politics--this is Americans being attacked because we're Americans.

Well the analysis says it was a high military grade and a very lethal form. Unfortunately you don't know what "treaks" have been to the virus and what the long-term effects might be for the survivors...
If anyone thinks this anthrax stuff is just a scare...we have only begun with this crisis...I am afraid it will probably get a lot worse before it gets better.

Or that there was a lot of it in the envelope! Obviously the person sending the material knew people are being cautious, so he/she went for the maximum exposure in the quickest time.
