Anthrax Prognosis
As explained in this eMedTV resource, an anthrax prognosis is a medical opinion as to the outcome of the disease. This article looks at factors that affect an anthrax prognosis, such as the type of the disease and the strain of bacteria involved.
Anthrax Screening
Anthrax screening is the act of testing people for the disease, even though they have no anthrax symptoms. As explained on this eMedTV Web page, a routine, effective anthrax screening test has yet to be developed.
Anthrax Symptoms
As this eMedTV page explains, symptoms of cutaneous anthrax often begin with a small, raised sore that resembles an insect bite, but later becomes a blister. This article provides an in-depth look at anthrax symptoms for all three types of the disease.
Anthrax Transmission
Anthrax transmission occurs either from contact with infected animals or animal products, or through bioterrorism. This eMedTV article explains both of these methods of anthrax transmission in detail.
