Dozens Hospitalized With Anthrax Contracted From Thawed WW2 Era ReindeerBy Heather Callaghan The anthrax-spewing zombie deer as Bloomberg calls it, was dated back to the World World 2 era. The area hasnt seen anthrax since 1941, and was considered free from infection since the 1960s. However, the Arctic Siberian district has faced temperatures ranging from 77F to 95F for over a month. It is believed that when the permafrost melted, it exposed an old, infected carcass allowing bacteria spores to travel. Anthrax is not just a biowarfare agent it is a naturally occurring bacteria called Bacillus anthracis and used to commonly infect animals and humans that handled animals. Antibiotics can treat inhalation anthrax if caught early enough. Treehugger reports the sad results of the outbreak: Compounding the tragic news is the death of 1,200 reindeer that have succumbed to the heat and infection from the disease. People in the region have been evacuated and Russia has sent biological warfare troops Chemical, Radioactive and Biological Protection Corps, to be precise to help quell the emergency. Both mainstream, corporate-lite and Russian outlets are attributing this incident to global warming with no further explanation. This story follows some other recent odd happenings in the Russian region. Earlier this year, a U.S. lab based in Russia was eyed for causing an outbreak that killed 20 Ukrainian soldiers and hospitalized 200 others. There was headline talk of blaming Putin for this outbreak dubbed the California Flu which demonstrated the increase in conflict whether any real blame was there or not. Around the same time, another flu epidemic spread to civilians in the eastern Ukrainian city of Kramatorsk. Last fall, Russian scientists decided to dig up a dormant, 30,000 year old virus from deep within the ground just to study its potential effects on humans. A week before that was reported, 60,000 antelope dropped dead in Central Kazakhstan and no one has a clue why. Kazakhstan is a country in between Russia and China. Notably, both the U.S. and Russia are constantly at work with germ labs. They are the only two countries allowed by the U.N. to house live smallpox vials in high security government labs just in case.
