 * [](Anthrax Outbreak [one example of a bioterrorist attack])
 * "The anthrax outbreak in the United States which occurred during the latter part of 2001 has many of the same characteristics as a typical outbreak." (paragragh 1)
 * "all of the cases were generated by a terrorist or group of terrorists who sent letters containing anthrax spores through the postal system" (paragraph 1)
 * "These spores -- very small in size -- typically entered the skin or lungs or victim when the envelop was handled or opened, when coming in contact with an environment where envelopes had previously been handled or opened, or when passing through small holes in unopened envelops." (paragraph 1)
 * "Intentionally infecting others with a deadly disease is a criminal matter, typically addressed by the police." (paragraph 2)
 * "Because the cases occurred in more than one state and involved the United States Postal System, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) was assigned as police detectives." (paragraph 2)
 * "Yet harm to the victims (namely, sickness and death) was caused by //Bacillus anthracis//, requiring knowledgeable disease rather than police detectives." (paragraph 2)
 * "This role was filled by epidemiologists from the United States Centers for Disease Control (CDC)." (paragraph 2)
 * "The goal of the disease detective is first to contain the outbreak and then to educate people on how to prevent similar outbreaks in the future." (paragraph 3)
 * "By necessity, these containment and education efforts involve the general public." (paragraph 3)
 * "Thus disease detectives work closely with the news media who as effective speakers and writers are best able to transmit educational messages." (paragraph 3)
 * "Thus disease detectives tend to be more open and collaborative then police detectives" (paragraph 3)
 * " While police detectives and disease detectives employ similar methods of investigation, the use of their findings is far different" (paragraph 3)
 * " The anthrax outbreak in the United States which occurred during the latter part of 2001 has many of the same characteristics as a typical outbreak." (paragraph 1)
 * "What is different, however, is that there was no transmission from infected to susceptible persons that linked one case with another." (paragraph 1)
 * "Instead, all of the cases were generated by a terrorist or group of terrorists who sent letters containing anthrax spores through the postal system. (paragraph 1)
