With all the scare, I'm not sure why immunization isn't neccesitated in schools for anthrax and the various bio/chem war tools that we're expecting. That should be the first action, we can decide whether or not we want them for ourselves, but there are antibodies for all of these that can be taken in advance, and typically must be taken in advance. There are things we can do, and we're doing some of it, dissallowing crop-dusters near big cities, but we could do so much more for imunization, actions that we as a nation are simply not concerned with enough to care. That's why I agree with ZT Angel, the media most be holding this as a much higher threat than it truly is, or many more steps of precaution would (I hope to God) be taken
