"It could be that thousands of extremely old folks who supposedly succumb to respiratory failure actually died from their bodies' inability to fight off exposure to minute particles of anthrax... who ever thought to check for anthrax before?

I read that theory as well. I don't recall why the doctors decided to test the 94-year-old-woman who
died from Anthrax. I recall the docs performed five tests, and all five tests came back positive. I'd have
to pull last week's articles to find out why the docs performed the tests in this particular instance.

One of the articles also mentioned that it is possible to find Anthrax spores in an area where
people have slaughtered animals. However, the last I heard the police ruled out that theory and considers the
woman's death a homicide.
