I Thought I had might have been exposed to Anthrax
Last week I started to feel like I was getting an allergy. Knowing I share un x-rayed film cans with Sony Studios where there was a reported Anthrax threat I was nervous about my own remote but not impossible exposure at work. Several people I work with were suddenly taken down by vicious "Flu Like Symptoms". After a long day of drinking and illicit sex on Friday I was feeling a little stressed out Saturday but chalked it up to hangover and readied myself for a tryst with a local stripper from the club by my house. Saturday afternoon I was over come by a fast acting vicious flu like attack that left me down but still functioning. After forcing myself to go to work Sunday night, when I woke up Monday afternoon I was feeling close to death with a hot burning crawling down my lungs fast enough that I could feel it choking the life out of me. Monday Night, again forcing myself to go to work, I learned that one of my coworkers with identical symptoms had just tested negative for Anthrax. I figured that meant I was negative as well and must have the Flu. We now Tuesday, im OK. Weak, but OK-
Have I been watching too much CNN or what???????

anthrax
Woman at my girlfriend's office dropped an envelope and there was an equal packet either in it, or near it, and she freaked out and they were evacuated and then quarantined for a couple of hours while the guys in the spacesuits made sure everything was OK

Really, why not get tested?
Hell, after trying to imagine all the things we've stuffed up our collective noses (briefly... very briefly), gettin' a q-tip stuffed up there ain't shit!

Redelk i totaly agree with you, oh what we have done to our bodies by ourselves. We don't need any outside help to do it, most people are quite capaible of putting hurt on themselves.

I believe if you had been infected with the anthrax virus you would probably not be around right now. Once you start having the symtoms is when its starts getting to the critical point.

I'm in a transient status waiting my discharge from the Navy and WHERE did they stick me... The freekin' mailroom for the entire subbase, GAAAA. Had to evacuate the place yesterday when we got an exact replica of the one Tom Brokaw got the other day. Turned out to be a dud, but man the timing sucks for this transfer.

That would be very bad to be exposed to that shit.Whoever is sending that shit should be exposed to it and don't give them the antidote either. I have no mercy for anybody that would do such a thing.

I read that you can buy a vile of anthrax for 50 bucks overseas...used to be able to easily buy it in the US and that is where Iraq got all of it's anthrax from...
It is not illegal to possess anthrax...you will get in more trouble if you have marijuana than if you have anthrax

There is only one company that makes the vaccine and they are under license from the Dept of DaFence. DoD actually owns the patent but has this crap company make it for them. FDA hasn't allowed the company to produce any product for 1-2 years because their QA standards and cleanliness were both shitty. I only got 3 (I think) of the 7 shot series before the supply dried up 'bout a year or so ago.
Oh well, every little bit helps I guess.
