Anthrax Probe Ties Sept 11 Hijacker to Possible Exposure
Government officials review a Johns Hopkins memo suggesting hijacker Ahmed Al Haznawi may have had a lesion in June consistent with anthrax exposure. The claim, debated by FBI and CIA, follows prior testing that found no evidence linking hijackers to anthrax. The Times report cites Dr. Christos Tsonas and Holy Cross Hospital as sources, with Hopkins researchers also weighing in.
