#1 is a biggie, of course, but after that the safety record looks pretty good.
The 2001 anthrax attacks in the United States, also known as Amerithrax from its Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) case name,
occurred over the course of several weeks beginning on September 18, 2001. Letters containing anthrax spores
were mailed to several news media offices and two Democratic U.S. Senators, killing five people and infecting 17 others.
The primary suspect was not publicly identified until 2008.
