I know that I shouldn't be paranoid but the way I look at it is do you think the man that died because of anthrax thought he would ever be infected??? Probably not. I am actually taking a class right now that deals with issues such as anthrax outbreaks and the like. We have talked about anthrax and other things that could be used in biowarfare. I know the difference between pulmonary and cutaneous anthrax and I also know just how bad both forms can be. We've also watched a video that dealt with the possibility of a huge anthrax outbreak in the US. It's unbelievable just how terrible that could be. Just a few little half liter jars of that stuff could kill thousands of people in just a few short days. I know that it seems silly to be paranoid over something that is out of my hands but maybe it's more sadness than paranoia. Maybe I'm just sad that I now fear the worst when just a few short weeks ago the biggest thing on my mind was what I was going to wear the next day to class.
