Anthrax Symptoms and Homeopathic Information
by Eileen Nauman, DHM (UK)
Permission is given to distribute to anyone who you think could utilize
this information ANTHRAX BIOLOGICAL WARFARE INFO Iraq, Russia and as
many as ten nations have the capability to load spores of B. anthracis
into weapons. The spores of B.
anthracis can be produced and stored in a dry form and remain viable for
decades in storage or after release. When released, the spores are
easily dispersed in air for inhalation by unprotected troops (or
civilians downwind) and may remain in soil for many years. Anthrax
spores are apparently one of the top choices of weapons for biological
warfare.

The following is an excerpt from the U.S. Navy Manual on Operational
Medicine and Fleet Support, entitled Biological Warfare Defense
Information Sheet.

"The disease Anthrax is caused by the bacteria Bacillus anthracis.
Anthrax is normally found in sheep, cattle and horses but can be
transmitted to humans who contact infected animals or their products.
Usually humans acquire the disease by skin contact with the bacteria or
by inhaling the bacterial spores found in sheep wool.

As an agent of biological warfare (BW), it is expected that a cloud of
Anthrax spores would be released at a strategic location to be inhaled
by the personnel under attack. As such, the symptoms of Anthrax
encountered in BW would follow those expected for inhalation of spores,
as opposed to those expected for skin contact or ingestion of the
bacteria. These symptoms are discussed in the sections below."
USE OF BLEACH AND WATER If you suspect that you've been sprayed with
Anthrax, it will be all over everything. The only way to help protect
yourself is with the use of BLEACH and WATER. "Disinfection of
contaminated articles may be accomplished using a 0.05% hypochlorite
solution (1 tbps. bleach per gallon of water). Spore destruction
requires steam sterilization."

INHALATION SYMPTOMS OF ANTHRAX I believe, strongly, that any use of
anthrax will come from an air disbursement of this biological agent. It
could be a small single engine airplane, and all the terrorists have to
do is fly up wind of a major city on a sea coast or large body of water
(like the Great Lakes), open the window, and open the container that has
the spores in it, and dump it out. The wind carrying into the major
heart and city center, will do the rest.
FLU-LIKE SYMPTOMS or a CHEST COLD SYMPTOMS About 1-6 days after inhaling
Bacillus anthracis spores there would be a gradual onset of vague
symptoms of illness such as fatigue, fever, mild discomfort in the chest
and a possibly a dry cough. You may think you have the "flu" or a
"chest cold." The symptoms would improve for a few hours or up to 2-3
days. Then, there would be sudden onset of difficulty in breathing,
profuse sweating, cyanosis (blue colored skin), shock and death in 24-36
hours.

These symptoms are essentially those of Woolsorter's disease, which is
caused by inhalation of Bacillus anthracis spores rather than contact
with the bacterium through the skin. Contact through the skin is the
most common "naturally" occurring form of Anthrax and is characterized
by swelling and boils on the skin. Skin symptoms would not necessarily
be expected with Anthrax resulting from inhaled spores in a biological
war attack; it would more than likely be INHALED.

Anthrax symptoms have TWO PHASES. The first set of symptoms mirror
non-specific flu-like symptoms.

* fever
* chills
* general discomfort, uneasiness, or ill feeling (malaise)
* headache
* nausea and vomiting
* shortness of breath/breathing problems

will turn into pneumonia

Potency ordered from a homeopathic pharmacy (or, if you buy a kit)
should be a 30C. Take these white pellets UNDER your tongue and let
them melt way. Do NOT take them with water. Take every 15 minutes
until you can receive emergency medical help.

If you cannot get to the hospital. Take every fifteen minutes until the
symptoms go away. When they stop: STOP taking the remedy.

WHERE TO GO ONLINE TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT EACH OF THESE REMEDY PICTURES
Under the circumstances it is impossible for me to give you all the
symptoms of each of these remedies. However, there is a website that
has all these remedies and you can download and print the ones you want
to keep on hand in a file that is handy for you to get to. Here is the
website address:

http://www.homeoint.org/books2/nashtherap/ WHERE TO GET HOMEOPATHIC
REMEDIES TO KEEP ON HAND There are several homeopathic pharmaceutical
companies. I recommend a kit. In particular, I recommend the Poisons
That Heal Kit from Hahnemann Labs. Go to:

http://www.hahnemannlabs.com/home___first_aid_kits.html You will see it
there. This kit was specifically designed for epidemics and diseases.
Although it is not specific for biological or chemical warfare, there
are still remedies in there that can help you.

I also recommend my book, POISONS THAT HEALS because I wrote it for
epidemic and potential terrorist attacks. It does not have info on
anthrax, but does on Plague, Ebola, and others. Please go to that page
and check it out. You do NOT need to buy the book, however.
You can simply take this article and make do with it.

# OTHER ANTHRAX INFORMATION
* Humans become infected by coming into contact with spores, either
through the
* skin
* mucous membranes
* resperatory tract
* Spores (the offspring of the organsim) can survive in soil for
50 years..or more...
* Humans are most commonly infected by spores found on animal products
such as hides, bristles, or wool. Biological warfare attack via
airplane.
ANTHRAX SKIN SYMPTOMS This is a doubtful route for a terrorist release
of Anthrax.
They will get more bang for their buck via an air assault and we breathe
it in. However, here are the skin symptoms--just in case I'm wrong:

Skin infection begins as a raised itchy bump that resembles an insect
bite but within 1-2 days develops into a vesicle and then a painless
ulcer, usually 1-3 cm in diameter, with a characteristic black necrotic
(dying) area in the center. * a reddish brown sore that breaks open and
forms a scab. Lymph glands in the adjacent area may swell. About 20%
of untreated cases of cutaneous anthrax will result in death. Deaths
are rare with appropriate antimicrobial therapy.
* Usually find a typical painless lesion (ulcer) at site of infection
with a black, necrotic (dying tissue) eschar (scab).
* Local swelling is prominent
* pulmonary (lungs/breathing/inhalation of it) anthrax may be life
threatening.

INTESTINAL ANTHRAX (eating it)

Again, it is doubtful that transmission is a low percentage (unless you
buy food where the spores have landed, then you can ingest it and end up
with the below symptoms):
Intestinal:(EATING FOOD CONTAMINATED WITH IT) The intestinal disease
form of anthrax may follow the consumption of contaminated meat and is
characterized by an acute inflammation of the intestinal tract.

Initial signs of nausea, loss of appetite, vomiting, fever are followed
by abdominal pain, vomiting of blood, and severe diarrhea.
* Abdominal Pain * Inflammation of the Intestinal Tract Intestinal
anthrax results in death in 25% to 60% of cases.

* blood cultures positive for anthrax
* chest X-ray
* serologic test for anthrax
* spinal tap for CSF culture and analysis TRADITIONAL MEDICAL TREATMENT
* Antibiotics: Penicillin
* No significant resistance observed QUESTIONS ABOUT ANTHRAX Can anthrax
be spread from person-to-person?
Direct person-to-person spread of anthrax is extremely unlikely to
occur. Communicability is not a concern in managing or visiting with
patients with inhalational anthrax.

How is anthrax diagnosed?
Anthrax is diagnosed by isolating B. anthracis from the blood, skin
lesions, or respiratory secretions or by measuring specific antibodies
in the blood of persons with suspected cases.

Is there a treatment for anthrax?

Doctors can prescribe effective antibiotics. To be effective, treatment
should be initiated early. If left untreated, the disease can be fatal.
