Abstract

We discuss the investigations and control measures undertaken following the notification of a fatal case of inhalation anthrax in East London. The patient is believed to have acquired the infection from making animal hide drums. Environmental investigations identified one drum and two pieces of animal skins contaminated with anthrax spores.
