,Headache
Overall feeling of discomfort
Body aches
Dry cough
SOB
Evidence of pneumonia or respiratory distress
Anthrax correct answers Exposure to contaminated animal products with Bacillus anthracis
Domestic and wild animals become infected by inhalation of spores
Three forms: cutaneous, intestinal and respiratory (most deadly)
Cutaneous:
Blisters or bumps that itch
Ulceres with a black center
Face, neck, arms, or hands
Intestinal
Acute inflammation of the intestinal tract
Nausea,vomitting and dirhhea
Edema- excess water in body cavities
Respiratory
Sore throat
Mild fever
Muscle aches
Malaise- discomfort, uneasiness
Botulism correct answers Rare but serious illness caused by a toxin that causes paralysis. Caused
by Clostridium botulinum toxin.
Food-borne botulism (15%): contaminated food
Wound botulism: wound infected by the botulism toxin.
Infant botulism: the bacteria grows in the intestine and produces the toxin.
Botulism toxin is divided in 8 neurotoxins. Human botulism is caused mainly by types A, B, E,
and (rarely) F.
