Good news though in the horizon for Anthrax.  The lab I worked at was in development of a shot for anthrax that you only have to take if you're exposed.  Its similar to the epipen style where as soon as you're exposed, you shoot up and it acts quickly (a closer equivilant would be antivenom to a snake bite).  It just ended animal trials and is starting phase I of clinical, but may be fast tracked since its under a DoD grant.  In animal trials, its shown to provide passive immunity with a 100% survival if given within 2 hours of being exposed to the lethal dose.</p></blockquote><p></p>
