What is Anthrax?
Anthrax is an acute infectious disease caused by the spore-forming bacterium bacillus
anthacis. There are three main types of anthrax: coetaneous, respiratory, and intestinal.
This rod-shaped microbe grows in soil, where it can be ingested by sheep, cows, horses
and goats. Anthrax most commonly occurs in warm-blooded animals, and can also infect
humans. Anthrax spores can be produced in a dry form (for biological warfare) which may
be stored and ground into particles. When inhaled by humans, these particles cause
respiratory failure and death within a week. Transmission to humans normally occurs
through contact with infected animals but can also occur through breathing air that contains
the spores of the bacillus. The disease is usually restricted to individuals who handle hides
of animals (farmers, butchers, and veterinarians) or sort wool.
