The second striker position is a loosely defined and most often misapplied description of a player positioned somewhere between the out-and-out striker, whether he is a target-man or more of a poacher, and the Number 10 attacking midfielder, while possibly showing some of the characteristics of both.
Inhalation of spores leads to pulmonary anthrax, which is usually fatal. B anthracis, including the strains isolated from the recent cases in the US, is sensitive in vitro to a range of antimicrobials, including penicillin, amoxicillin, doxycycline, tetracycline, clarithromycin, clindamycin, and ciprofloxacin.
Penicillin reduces the incidence or progression of anthrax following exposure to aerosolized B anthracis. Available safety data for penicillin G procaine best support a duration of therapy of 2 weeks or less. Treatment for inhalational anthrax (postexposure) must be continued for a total of 60 days.
