antibiotics
nope. there's an 80 percent fatality rate. if you have it i feel sorry for you.
At early stages yes, with high doses of penicillin or other antibiotics. But if you wait to long its too late.
It is a bacteria and the infection can be treated with large doses of intravenous and oral antibiotics, such as ciprofloxacin, doxycycline, erythromycin, vancomycin or penicillin.
Farm animals. Although, in the US we vaccinate farm animals against anthrax. World wide, however, sheep and cows are the most common victims of anthrax. It is more of a livestock disease than a human one. Humans are certainly susceptible to anthrax and if you walk around barefoot on a farm with an open cut you may find yourself with an anthrax infection. Anthrax is not very dangerous unless it is prepared as a weapon. You are in more danger from influenza or pneumonia. ;)
what is the history on the anthrax disease
The Anthrax was created in 1982.
bacillus anthrax
For animals, there is no cure. 99% cases of anthrax are caught too late. There is a vaccine, however, for livestock in areas where anthrax is prominent. It is a nonencapsulated spore vaccine that offers almost 100% protection after two weeks. But once an animal has got anthrax, often it is too late. In humans, there is a cure available, but mostly in the form of penicillins.
A person with anthrax isn't considered contagious so if you get anthrax then no you are not contagious.
