I saw a report on 20/20-Primetime about the Soviet release of anthrax in '79 and Diane Sawyer showed how much was released, about the size of teaspoon and it killed about many people plus animals for about 3-4 miles from the release site. So, if that little amount was so deadly, why is the anthrax we are experiencing not as deadly? The anthrax in FL and DC was of the small 1-5 microns. Why do they down play it? The way I think about it is, we just found out it was anthrax quick and have been able to get meds into our systems. If the Dr. in FL had not found it right away we may have had many more deaths.
