Who should get vaccinated against anthrax?


The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices has recommended anthrax vaccination for the following groups:

bulleted list item, level 1Persons who work directly with the organism in the laboratory
bulleted list item, level 1Persons who work with imported animal hides or furs in areas where standards are insufficient to prevent exposure to anthrax spores.
bulleted list item, level 1Persons who handle potentially infected animal products in high-incidence areas. (Incidence is low in the United States, but veterinarians who travel to work in other countries where incidence is higher should consider being vaccinated.)
bulleted list item, level 1Military personnel deployed to areas with high risk for exposure to the organism (as when it is used as a biological warfare weapon).
