I was wondering about something. If somebody contracts anthrax do they also aquire an immunity to it? Or if they are exposed again is it another 60 day cycle?

Obviously the problem here with anthrax exposure and infection is that the early symtoms go undiagnosed. What, pray tell, are the symptoms before it's too late! Freepers should be able to track this down with expert testimony such as what was the progression of the symtoms of the people who have actually now been confirmed, from the onset of exposure to clinical expressions of infection? ie some people got sick and were not treated properly others were.

Anthrax is a bacteria not a virus. You never gain immunity from a bacterial infection. Each exposure has to be treated.
