Birçok ülke kendilerini şarbon ve çiçeğe karşı daha iyi korumak için önlemler alıyor. - Many countries take measures in order to protect themselves against anthrax or smallpox better.
An acute infectious bacterial disease of herbivores, especially sheep and cattle. It can occur in humans through contact with infected animals, tissue from infected animals, or high concentrations of anthrax spores, but is not usually spread between humans. Symptoms include lesions on the skin or in the lungs, and it is often fatal
- a contagious bacterial disease that can spread from animals to man which can infect lung, intestinal and nervous system
Deadly bacterium used in apparent bioterrorist attacks since September 11, 2001 Anthrax can infect by inhalation or skin contact (cutaneous infection) It is treatable with antibiotics, primarily doxycycline and Cipro If diagnosed early, the patient has a strong probability of full recovery Anti-terrorism Anti-terrorism efforts are preventive measures, such as judicial, legislative, security or military measures taken to reduce vulnerability to a terrorist attack, as contrasted with counter-terrorism measures, which are military, police and intelligence measures used to fight terrorism through pre-emptive or retaliatory measures
Single-celled bacterial organism capable of forming spores Proves deadly when used as a biological weapon, producing pneumonia-like symptoms
an infectious, potentially fatal disease of warm-blooded animals, especially of cattle and sheep, caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracis
a highly infectious animal disease (especially cattle and sheep); it can be transmitted to people
(The term comes from the Greek word for coal as Anthrax may leave a dark scab on the skin )
a species of Bacillus that causes anthrax in humans and in animals (cattle and swine and sheep and sheep and rabbits and mice and guinea pigs); can be used a bioweapon
a disease of humans that is not communicable; caused by infection with Bacillus anthracis followed by septicemia
A bacterial disease transmitted to humans usually by contact with infected animals or their discharges (agricultural anthrax) or with contaminated animal products (industrial anthrax)
An infectious disease caused by the bacteria Bacillus anthracis Weaponized anthrax spores are dispersed by aerosol, and are highly lethal to humans Anthrax has been produced as a biological weapons agent, and is suspected as a potential agent for use by bioterrorists
a disease of humans that is not communicable; caused by infection with Bacillus anthracis followed by septicemia a highly infectious animal disease (especially cattle and sheep); it can be transmitted to people
Anthrax is a disease of cattle and sheep, in which they get painful sores and a fever. Anthrax can be used in biological weapons. a serious disease affecting cattle and sheep, which can affect humans. Infectious disease of warm-blooded animals, caused by Bacillus anthracis, a bacterium that, in spore form, can retain its virulence in contaminated soil or other material for many years. A disease chiefly of herbivores, the infection may be acquired by persons handling the wool, hair, hides, bones, or carcasses of affected animals. Infection may lead to death from respiratory or cardiac complications (within 1-2 days if acute), or the animal may recover. In humans, anthrax occurs as a cutaneous, pulmonary, or intestinal infection. The most common type, which occurs as an infection of the skin, may lead to fatal septicemia (blood poisoning). The pulmonary form of the disease is usually fatal. Sanitary working environments for susceptible workers are critical to preventing anthrax; early diagnosis and treatment are also of great importance. In recent decades, various countries have attempted to develop anthrax as a weapon of biological warfare; many factors, including its extreme potency (vastly greater than any chemical-warfare agent), make it the preferred biological-warfare agent. Concerns about anthrax mounted in 2001 after it was found in letters mailed to members of the U.S. government and news agencies
It is ascribed to the presence of a rod-shaped bacterium (Bacillus anthracis), the spores of which constitute the contagious matter
A microscopic, bacterial organism (Bacillus anthracis), resembling transparent rods
{i} fatal disease characterized by infections of the skin lungs and digestive system that is caused by the poisonous bacteria Bacillus anthracis (this bacteria is used in biological weapons)
An acute infectious bacterial disease of herbivores, especially sheep and cattle. It can occur in humans through contact with infected animals, tissue from infected animals, or high concentrations of anthrax spores, but is not usually spread between humans. Symptoms include lesions on the skin or in the lungs, and is often fatal
a form of anthrax infection that begins as papule that becomes a vesicle and breaks with a discharge of toxins; symptoms of septicemia are severe with vomiting and high fever and profuse sweating; the infection is often fatal
a form of anthrax infection acquired by inhalation of dust containing Bacillus anthracis; initial symptoms (chill and cough and dyspnea and rapid pulse) are followed by extreme cardiovascular collapse
