And the next time you read an article where the reporter brags on how great
the anthrax vaccine is... may I suggest to copy and revise a little bit this
letter to the editor? And this is what is approved for our troops.....
nuttin' but the best... God help us all.

Letter to the Editor


The government's propaganda on Anthrax vaccination would have warmed the
cockles of Joseph Goebbels's heart (if he had one, that is). They have played
right into the hands of the anti-choice lobby by sneaking Anthrax aboard our
ships just before they departed and springing them, unannounced, on
unsuspecting service personnel.


That there have been objections to this tactic is not surprising. Though the
armed services train people to obey orders, they do not teach them to stop
thinking and any thinking person who can read and write would be able to
access much medical information on the dangers of this vaccine.


For instance, the following is a partial list of adverse reactions from the
package insert of the American Vaccine (being used on Australian Troops),
BioThrax. "cellulitis, cysts, pemphigus vulgaris, endocarditis, sepsis,
angioedema and other hypersensitivity reactions, asthma, aplastic anemia,
neutropenia, idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura, lymphoma, leukemia,
collagen vascular disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis,
polyarteritis nodosa, inflammatory arthritis, transverse myelitis,
Guillain-Barré Syndrome, immune deficiency, seizure, mental status changes,
psychiatric disorders, tremors, cerebrovascular accident (CVA), facial palsy,
hearing and visual disorders, aseptic meningitis, encephalitis, myocarditis,
cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation, syncope, glomerulonephritis, renal
failure, spontaneous abortion and liver abscess. Infrequent reports were also
received of multisystem disorders defined as chronic symptoms involving at
least two of the following three categories: fatigue, mood-cognition,
musculoskeletal system.Reports of fatalities included sudden cardiac arrest
(2), myocardial infarction with polyarteritis nodosa (1), aplastic anemia
(1), suicide (1) and central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma (1).

Now Mr. Editor, I challenge you - if you were to be offered a vaccine listing
these as side effects, would you be the first to roll up your sleeve?
