Guest guest Posted November 22, 2001 Report Share Posted November 22, 2001 Last night we got a call that seems to show that the media has finally overloaded some of the people. A man called on 9-1-1 to say that he had a dead bird on this front porch that had anthrax. After the initial questions, where, who, the why question became interesting. Just as background, we are starting to find dead birds which have the West Nile Virus. This is a natural threat to people here, not the man made type. It seems as if my gentleman has now gotten confused and believes the anthrax is being delivered by birds. After a short refresher about the postal workers dying from letters, not birds, we got him back on track. He decided he was going to just bury the bird in his yard. Happy Thanksgiving to those of us working. Larew NC911@...
