Dan Rather employee tests positive for anthrax
CBS News says an employee in Dan Rather's office has tested positive for the skin form of anthrax. The employee is being treated with antibiotics and is expected to make a full recovery. It's the same form of anthrax, the cutaneous form, that infected an aide to NBC's Tom Brokaw, after she handled a letter that was addressed to him. In Washington, the Senate was open for business Thursday, continuing work despite the anthrax scare that convinced House leaders to shut down operations through the weekend to allow for extensive environmental testing.
