More: apparently  the idea that Vergil was talking about anthrax appears
in the first paragraph of a lot of articles about anthrax

See also Dirckx JH. Virgil on anthrax. Am J Dermatopathol.
1981:3:191–195. [non vidi!!]

Some people even think the Plague at Athens might have been anthrax, but
there are lots of theories about that one.
