New anthrax case probed in Washington area
Officials investigated how a New Jersey woman who did not work for the postal service contracted skin anthrax while doctors in New York City monitored a suspected inhaled case in a hospital worker. Ridge called the NYC case different and noted the mail is largely safe as traces of spores appeared in Capitol Police offices and in the Agriculture Department mailroom. The Friendship Heights post office was closed and workers advised to begin antibiotics.
