ANTHRAX

Anthrax occurs regularly, in the tropics and sub-tropics, at endemic to hyperendemic rates. In the Old World - Greece, Spain and Turkey and sub-Saharan African countries, each report several cases of infection in animals (and probably suffer many more) every year.  Spain reported about a hundred cases of Anthrax in humans, every year, throughout the 90's.  In the north temperate regions, including transalpine Europe and Canada, occurrence is sporadic.

The causative organism, Bacillus anthracis - a bacterium of the large Order Eubacteriales - is widespread, if not ubiquitous, in low concentrations, in soil.  It exists as a highly resistant spore, which activates on contact with animal tissues.  Infection follows (most virulently) after contact between the spore and a wound in the skin, although infection via pulmonary and alimentary routes may also be rapidly fatal, depending on the occurrence of lesions in the lungs and gut, respectively.

B. anthracis is a favourite of biological-warfare researchers, because of its resistant spore and its virulence.  Many countries are known to have stockpiles of anthrax-bombs.  What's more, preventive vaccination with an attenuated strain is extremely effective, so that populations can be selectively protected.
