It is clear from this that the military, just like our public health officials, FAIL to warn people of the very real risks that vaccines pose. They shoot first and let the victims fall where they may. As this article points out, this little boy should have NEVER been allowed to be exposed to someone vaccinated with this live viral vaccine. Public health laws in almost every state including Texas provide for the forcible vaccination of citizens in times of emergency with smallpox and other vaccines regardless of their health, medical condition at the time of vaccination, or safety concerns with the vaccine. The person should ALWAYS be informed of the risks to themselves and others and allowed to make an informed voluntary decision in EVERY circumstance. The real sacrifice of a child for a theoretical threat of disease is not acceptable. -Dawn] Smallpox shot infects soldier's toddler son Boy critically ill; mom also stricken By Jeremy Manier Tribune staff reporter Published March 17, 2007 In the first case of its kind in years, a 2-year-old boy is being treated in Chicago for a rare and life-threatening infection that he contracted from his father, a U.S. Army soldier recently vaccinated against smallpox. The Indiana boy is in critical condition with eczema vaccinatum, an unusual side effect of the smallpox vaccine that can affect people who receive the shot or their close contacts.
