Response to Anthrax Threats (2003) 27 minutes

Technical Committee: Tom Abbott, Chief, Tempe (AZ) Fire Dept.; Rem Gaade, Gaade & Associates, Toronto, Ont.; Rick Emery, Emery & Associates, Vernon Hills, IL; William Patrick, Biological Warfare Consultant; Glen Rudner, Virginia Department of Emergency Services, Dumfries, VA.

It is important that the response to an anthrax threat be in proportion to the level of danger at the incident scene. "Response to Anthrax Threats" focuses on letters or packages that claim to contain anthrax. The program outlines the four common scenarios requiring an anthrax response:

A threat is made by telephone or other means, but no package is discovered
An unopened letter or package is discovered that claims to contain anthrax
A package is opened that claims to contain anthrax, but no suspicious material is included
A package or letter is opened that claims to contain anthrax, and a suspicious substance is found.

Appropriate response procedures for each scenario are described. The program describes the symptoms of infection for three types of exposure: inhalation, ingestion and cutaneous and tells how to manage victims who may have become contaminated. Other topics covered by the program include use of hazmat protocols, decontamination, managing evidence, protective clothing for responders, dealing with the 'worried well,' and clean-up.
