2001 anthrax attacks

The 2001 anthrax attacks were a series of attacks that used anthrax, a deadly type of bacteria, to scare and hurt people. In 2001, the anthrax was sent through the mail to several different places in the United States. The anthrax infected many people, and some of them even died. Anthrax can come in a powder form, and it can make people very sick. People can get it if they accidentally breathe it in or if they touch it and then touch their eyes, nose or mouth. The 2001 anthrax attacks were scary because no one knew where the anthrax was coming from, and it made a lot of people feel unsafe. The attacks were eventually solved, but not before many people were hurt.
