Does anyone else remember how the Whitehouse administered

[Bandit]

Anthrax antidote to everyone in the Administration in early September 2001? They have never done so again. Only that one time and coincidentally just a week before the Anthrax letters were sent. What was the excuse they gave for giving everyone the antidote and why was that the only time they ever did such a thing? Anyone else recall this? Does that antidote , I believe it was called Cipro, last forever or does it wear off?

1. Cipro is just an anti-biotic. It wears off.

I was on cipro last year for an ear infection. Once you stop taking it, it leaves your system.

3. Cipro may not be what it was, it just stuck in my mind for some reason

4. No, you were correct. Cipro is strong, and is used to treat Anthrax.

They were all on Cipro.

2. I think it's timed to last as long as

the applicable death-threat scare tactic. exactly as long. Maybe a bit longer.
