The two were admitted over the weekend with sympoms consistant with inhaled anthrax, but sickend and died before tests could be completed to confirm this.

Two others are being treated for inhaled anthrax, and 5 others cases are "suspicous" for anthrax.

All were postal employees at the Brentwood postal sorting station- which supplies mail to the Capitol- or at the Air Mail facility at Baltimore-Washington International airport.

The Brentwood facility employs 2000 workers.  All are being called in to re-test for anthrax.

Postal Employees are angry that the facility was not closed and cleaned when the anthrax was found at the Capitol, since it HAD to have come through that facility.
