yes.With antibiotics.
Anthrax is a serious infectious disease caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracis. When anthrax spores enter the body, they can cause severe illness by producing toxins that can damage cells and tissues. Symptoms of anthrax can vary depending on how the infection enters the body but can include fever, malaise, cough, and difficulty breathing. Severe cases of anthrax can be fatal if not promptly treated with antibiotics.
Anthrax is a disease caused by the microorganism called Bacillus anthracis. This bacteria produces a poisonous toxin (thus anthrax poisoning is caused by a toxin produced by the bacteria during the course of infection). Disease: Anthrax Cause: B. anthracis
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. ;)
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".
there are variations of anthrax that are viral and bacterial most anthrax is bacterial
there are three form of infections with anthrax. Pulmonary anthrax that it is deadly if not treated early gastrointestinal anthrax fatality rates 20- 60% cutaneous form of anthrax that it is really fatal
. FDA-approved agents include ciprofloxacin, doxycycline and penicillin.
nope. there's an 80 percent fatality rate. if you have it i feel sorry for you.

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.
Theay are some new therapy in USA (stage three clinical) that promise more chance of surwey to the people that are infectet with anthrax.one of them it is raxibacumab.This is a monclonal antibody that it block anthrax toxines.
Anthrax in animals may cause staggering, bloody discharge, convulsions, and suffocation, and may be fatal almost immediately. In humans, if the bacteria enter through a cut or other opening in the skin, a dark, itchy bump like an insect bite appears and then develops into an open sore with a black area in the center. It can be treated with antimicrobial drugs, but death results in about 20 percent of untreated cases Symptoms of inhaled anthrax in humans are at first like a cold or the flu, with general aches and pains, fever, fatigue, cough, and mild chest pain. Inhaled anthrax is fatal unless the infected person is immediately treated with antibiotics. The gastrointestinal form of anthrax in humans causes nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and severe diarrhea. The disease can be fatal in 20 percent to 60 percent of cases.
what is the history on the anthrax disease
bacillus anthrax
The Anthrax was created in 1982.
