Anthrax in a nutshell: Sen. Bill Frist (R.-Tenn.), a heart surgeon, discloses that mailed anthrax spores were milled to a size to facilitate aerosolization and inhalation (“weaponized”?); likely to be a military strain. Surgeon General David Satcher admits “we were wrong” not to move more quickly to protect postal workers once the fact of tainted mail was established. CDC recommends masks and gloves for mail handlers; the USPS considers irradiating all mail, the Postmaster General tells us there’s no need to stop mail delivery, for which some have called. Three more postal workers associated with the Daschle letter come down with symptoms of inhalation anthrax. Officials continue to find ‘rhetorical links’ between the anthrax attacks and the 9-11 terrorist attacks, but the FBI reports no hard evidence of a connection. Dubya continues to thrill and inspire us with vows that these actions “will not stand.” One Florida victim survives the acute phase of inhalation anthrax and is released after a 23 day hospital admission.
