Harry Reid: “I do have people ask about anthrax. I do have them ask about threats…”

On the recordOctober 23, 2001

I do have people ask about anthrax. I do have them ask about threats of smallpox, threats of influenza virus, threats of terrorists generally. Also, I say to my friend, I spoke very briefly this morning about another crisis we tend not to focus on, but in this bill there is $475 million to help people with AIDS. I say to my friend, as I said earlier, 7,000 people are dying every day in Africa because of AIDS. We have money in this bill to help that plague.
