QuoteThe Pentagon revealed Wednesday that "live anthrax" was shipped, apparently by accident, from a lab in Utah to as many as nine states.
Pentagon spokesman Col. Steve Warren assured "there is no known risk to the general public" and said an investigation is under way. But a defense official also told Fox News it is unknown at this time whether anyone was exposed to the live samples.
That last sentence is the real punchline.
