Not really.
The incidence of anthrax in Australia is low, and cases of human infection are few and far between. Anthrax bacteria can remain in the soil for a long time, and there is risk to humans when they cut into the carcass of an infected animal. The average citizen, however, is not at risk.

Do anthrax poses a big threat of bioterrorism?
Yes, anthrax poses a significant threat of bioterrorism due to its potential for use as a biological weapon. It can be easily dispersed in aerosol form, leading to widespread infection and panic. The spores are resilient and can survive in the environment for long periods, making detection and response challenging. Furthermore, the lethality of inhalational anthrax, if not treated promptly, adds to its appeal for malicious use.
How long does anthrax live?
Anthrax spores can survive in the environment for long periods, often years or even decades, depending on conditions such as temperature and moisture. In soil, spores can remain viable for decades, making them a persistent threat in areas where anthrax is endemic. In contrast, the vegetative form of the bacteria, which is responsible for infection, does not survive long outside a host.

Is bacillus anthracis a good or bad bacteria and why?
Bacillus anthracis causes the disease anthrax. Anthrax is a life-threatening infectious disease that normally affects animals (such as goats, cattle, sheep, and horses). Anthrax can be transmitted to humans by contact with infected animals or their products. Anthrax does not spread from person to person. In the soil, where they live, anthrax organisms exist in a dormant form called spores. These spores are difficult to destroy. The spores have been known to survive for as long as 48 years. Ingestion of anthrax can cause serious, sometimes fatal disease.The most deadly form is inhalation anthrax. If the spores of anthrax are inhaled, they spread, and produce toxins that often cause death.The greatest threat of anthrax today is through a bio-terrorist attack which would be delivered as an aerosol.It is considered "bad".

Contact with infected animals or animal products2. As a result of bio-terrorism - Example: in 2001 Anthrax was deliberately spread through the postal system by sending letters containing anthrax powder. This caused 22 cases of Anthrax infections.The CDC classifies agents into 3 priority areas. Anthrax is classified as a Category A agent. This means:1. May spread across a large area, or require public awareness.2. Pose the greatest possible threat for a bad effect on public health.3. Require a great deal of planning to protect the public's health.
