We agree, then.
Notice that a gas mask will not help, unless it's a type that will take a
filter capable of retaining micron-size particles. Also, only rubber
fetish folks can be expected to wear a gas mask sustainably. Weapon-grade
anthrax can be expected to be MDR, but I would still stock up on 90 days
worth of at least two types of antibiotics.
Staying out of mass assemblies of people in a small volume with poor
ventilation would seem even better.
