True regarding anthrax is all except:
Answer: C
Correct answer: Cutaneous type is rare nowadays
Cutaneous anthrax is not rare - it is by far the commonest form, making up more than 95 per cent of naturally occurring cases, so this statement is the exception and the required answer. The other three are true: the organism enters through abraded skin, particularly in those handling hides, wool and bone meal; biting flies can transfer it mechanically; and inhalation of spores produces the woolsorter’s disease form, which is far less common but far more lethal.
