Boston, MA (Brighton), 736 Cambridge St. (St. Elizabeth's Hospital). approx. 0230 hrs. 10/27/03.  A postal worker inspecting a package from China was exposed to an unknown powdery white substance at the South Boston Postal Annex, and for some unknown reason, took a cab to St. Elizabeth's Hospital in Brighton for treatment before she could be quarantined by the USPS.  Luckily, the USPS notified St. E's, and they were able to confine the victim to the cab, preventing contamination of the entire emergency room.  The Boston Fire Department responded and setup a decontamination station.  The victim and the cab driver were decontaminated and brought into the ER for treatment.
