    prepared to meet and respond to any type of emergency," said Higgs. "After
    Sept. 11 nothing seems the same anymore and people are apprehensive, nervous
    and curious about the county's ability to respond to a terror-related
    disaster. That's understandable," he said. Full

    When a letter containing anthrax was mailed to a Senate office last month,
    the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said antibiotics were
    not necessary for postal workers in the nation's capital, and two of the
    workers died. But when a 94-year-old woman in Connecticut contracted a
    lethal case of anthrax last week, the disease control agency quickly
    recommended treatment for postal workers, even though there is no evidence
    as yet that a contaminated letter was the source of her infection. Full
