Despite the high level of anxiety the American people are currently experiencing, we may
still not fully comprehend the seriousness of the current and near-term threats we
confront or the longer-term consequences of the trends underscored on September 11.

The sophisticated quality of the anthrax used in the letter to Senator Daschle suggests
that the threat of bioterrorism has reached a new level previously viewed by many as

on the potential perpetrator of the recent anthrax attacks and weighed the bioterrorism
threat.

Close to half of American adults reported having one or more substantial symptoms of
stress in the hours and days immediately following the September 11 terrorist attacks, and
nine out of ten had stress reactions to some degree, according to a RAND survey published
in the New England Journal of Medicine. The report by Mark A. Schuster and others is
published in the November 15, 2001 issue (345:1507-1512).
