DERBY, Connecticut (CNN) -- An elderly Connecticut woman has been hospitalized in critical condition, and officials suspect she may have contracted inhalation anthrax, Connecticut Gov. John Rowland said Tuesday.
Rowland said the woman lives alone in her home in Oxford, about 10 miles west of New Haven. She seldom left the house and has no known connection with the U.S. Postal Service or government facilities, which are tied to most of the previous anthrax cases, he said. Rowland described the case as an "anomaly."
