http://t1.g.hjfile.cn/listen/201309/201309240606335068323.mp3It's the 18th of September, 2001. And in Trenton, New Jersey, someone has just posted letters to prominent media organisations, folded inside the potentially lethal biological agent Anthrax.
Anthrax, a terrorist threat or a figment of our fears?
This is NBC Nightly News with Tom Brokaw.
Good evening. Tonight we find ourselves in the unusual and unhappy position of reporting on one of our beloved colleagues who has contracted a cutaneous Anthrax infection.
Postal workers at a number of TV stations and newspapers have been taken ill. It's just weeks after 9/11 and the nation is already in a profound state of shock. These latest attacks have a new psychological impact. Special Agent Scott Stanley of the FBI was one of the first on the scene after the attack on the Pentagon. He's been redeployed to solve the Anthrax case.
The fear was palpable. On 9/11, you had planes coming down, you had fixed crime scenes. This was very spurious. There was anthrax spread throughout the mail system in multiple cities. Nobody knew where it was coming from or how it was gonna turn out.
Anthrax is a potentially deadly disease that's caused by a bacteria. Occasionally it is found in nature but the strain found in the letters is the Ames strain developed by the US military after the Second World War to research biological weapons and shared with only a few close allies. The FBI already suspects that this is a deliberate biological attack.2001年9月18日在美国新泽西州的特伦顿，有人将含有致命炭疽病菌的信件寄往各大知名新闻机构。
炭疽攻击，这到底是一场恐怖袭击还是人们恐惧的幻想？
现在是NBC的晚间新闻时间，我是汤姆·布罗考。
晚上好。与往常不同，今晚我们遗憾地向您播报一条新闻：我们一位可爱的同事因与炭疽病菌接触，现已感染。
很多电视台和报社的邮政人员也因感染而患病。该事件距“9·11”仅有几周，美国上下陷入了一片震惊。这一系列新型炭疽攻击给人们带来了心的心理打击。FBI特工斯考特·斯坦利是率先赶到911现场的人之一。他接到调动任命以解决炭疽攻击事件。
恐慌情绪明显蔓延。在911，你能看到下坠的飞机和淋漓的犯罪现场。但是炭疽事件却难以捉摸。炭疽病菌借由信件在各大城市传播。没人知道病毒的来源，也没人知道事情将会发展成什么样。
炭疽病由病菌引发并有致死风险。人们偶尔会在自然中发现炭疽病原。但这次在信件里发现的炭疽菌株却是由二战后的美军研发出来的。当时是作生物武器之用，而且美国只与少数盟友分享了这一研究成果。FBI怀疑此次事件是一次有预谋的生物袭击行动。
