Anthrax has been around for decades. There was never a need to test for this before... and there is no need now. How many thousands of deadly compounds can be sent via public venues? Your reasoning suggests that every man woman and child would need their own personal reader. My money says that the USA will spend on PREVENTION rather than DETECTION after the fact. Is it wiser to spend billions on preventing a plane or sucicidal manic from killing thousands or detecting a situation that has already taken place? If my memory serves, 1 elderly woman in Iowa died from Anthrax. Period. All other situations were dealt with in a timely fashion. The fact remains that if the potential was so great, the true value of RBM would be reflected in the price. If this unit were available 6 months ago, perhaps tens of thousands would have been sold. But not now. Priorities change, and I have the feeling that Anthrax is fairly low on the totem pole. We shall see soon enough. RAMP will be restricted to hospital use at best.
