Anthrax Outbreak

strict vigilance maintained against contagious disease.

In the case of anthrax. the in- fection can only be spread by con- tact. It is a bacterial and not a virus disease. such as t.hc foot. and mouth disease. and is therefore easier to keep under control.

According to the Encyclopaedia Britannica. anthrax is of very anc- ient origin. and has been widely diffused in one or more of its forms over the surface of the globe. It figures largely in the history of the early and middle ages. The old- est Anglo-Saxon manuscripts con- tain many .fantrisl.ic i-eclpcs for its prevention or cure. In the lath and l9th centuries it sometimes spr&d over the whole of Europe.

were first discovered. in 1849, and It was in their experiments with this isoase that Pasteur and other scleni. sts first. showed how in make the morblfic poison its own eliti- dote.

Britannica, vary with the species of animal. the mode of infection. and the seat of the primary lesion. internal or external, In all its forms anthrax is an Lnocuiable dis- ease, transmission being promptly effected by this means. and it may be conveyed to'nearly all animals by inoculation of a wouii of the skin or through the diges vo or- gms. Cattle. sheep and horses nearly always owe their infection to spares or bacilli ingested with their food or water. and pigs usual- ly by eating the flesh of pnlmais dead of anthrax. Internal anthrax. of cattle and sheep. exhibits no premonitory symptoms that can be relied on. General the first indication of an outbrea is the sudden death of one or more of the herd or flock. Animals which do not die at once may be noticed In stagger and tremble; the breathing becomes hurried and the pulse very rapid. While death is usually rapid or sudden when the malady gener- al. internal anthrax in catt e is not invariably fetal. In some cases the animal rallies from a first. attack and generally recovers.
