Extract

Anthrax: The "Acute infectious disease," is a spore forming bacteria called "Bacillus Anthracis". It is mostly found in hoofed animals, and is very deadly. It can be caught in 3 forms: Cutaneous Anthrax, Inhalation Anthrax, and Gastrointestinal Anthrax. All of these forms of the disease can be prevented.
The first use of anthrax as a weapon was against Germany in World War 1. British intelligence documents show that from 1916-1918 reveal that the Germans infected nearly 5,000 mules and horses in Mesopotamia, and that in August 1916 sent anthrax to Romania to infect sheep being transported to Russia.
