Winnie mentioned concerns about the antibiotic Cipro for nursing mothers. While not the official word, there was a Washington Post article on other and possibly more effective medications: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A5601-2001Oct16.html That newspaper also had useful round-up articles on routes of transmission, and the confusing misuse of terminology in current reporting: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/nation/specials/attacked/bioterrorism/A12043-2001Oct17.html http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/nation/specials/attacked/bioterrorism/A12359-2001Oct17.html I bet the NY Times website also has some good background pieces. Hope we never need any of this information.
