    So was anthrax, botulinum, smallpox, and pyridostimine bromide.

    I know I got a few of those, maybe all. Nobody asked us. "Get in line; name, ssn, payroll sig on the form once you get stung; make sure S-1 can read it or you'll end up getting it again."

    We all got anthrax; some of us got small pox. No one I knew got botulism vax (worthless), and although we had the pyridostigmine pills, I told my guys to not take it unless I told them (which I never did).

    I don’t believe the anthrax or smallpox are under any emergency approval and have been around for quite a while.

    Also, the anthrax vaccination stopped for a few years after some people made some noise and the .mil had to figure out some legalities.

    Smallpox was the 1st recorded vaccine (1800s common use). World-wide smallpox vaccinations started in 1959.

    .Mil screwed the pooch on Anthrax. I started the series twice but never finished. Anthrax vaccine was licensed in the 1970s.

    I had all of the anthrax vax; it seemed each shot was worse than the one before.

    Before smallpox vax, a physician would make a cut on an individual's arm, take a small 'dab' of blood from someone infected with smallpox, and put that 'dab' into the healthy subject to create antibodies. It usually worked; sometimes didn't and the person would get it and die. The healthy recipient would usually get quite sick for a few days before recovering.

    They definitely started it back up a while ago. I’m on “boosters”, only if I have to deploy at this point.

    Buddy of mine just called & said the 1st pfizer put him in the hospital for a week...got the shot in the AM & admitted in the PM. He's retired & only got it cuz he didn't want any hassles traveling / wife was nagging him. Said they ran every test imaginable including a spinal tap & he's otherwise perfectly healthy. He was here a month ago doing a 4473 & the wife & I gave our $0.02 about avoiding it short term.

    The other vacs status thread thinks they halted the jj over 6 clots when multiple states have halted the jj in recent weeks due to adverse reactions...I would post this 411 over there but dissent / negativity to vacs is frowned upon. Sorry for the hijack & I would wager it's a lot more than 40% of Devil Dogs who are refusing the jab.

    2ACR got all three in DS. It wasn’t voluntary. The PB tablets were command enforced because of the threat we faced.
