Dr. Mercola's Comment:
The smallpox vaccine poses high risks and has been
associated with a number of adverse affects. If this isn't
reason enough of why it should be avoided, consider that it
is very unlikely that the United States will be the target
of a smallpox bioterrorism attack.
Further, it looks like all the anti-terrorism protection is
unnecessary as the largest research project of its kind
ever conducted shows 90 percent of those vaccinated with
smallpox maintain a substantial level of immunity, even if
the immunization was up to 75 years ago.
Researchers also concluded that in the long term, repeated
vaccinations do not result in a higher level of disease
protection. It is all a moot issue anyway as it is likely
the vaccine is not necessary to avoid smallpox. If this
sounds like heresy then you have likely not read why
hygiene is more important than vaccination against smallpox.
