It perhaps doesn't make sense in light of recent developments but there has been a public outcry about using "unnecessary" vaccines for years. Many diseases have been "eradicated" from public view thus people think there's no reason to worry about ever getting something like smallpox. New parents have been focused on the possible side effects of many vaccines and many parents refuse vaccines altogher.
If you're old enough, you remember the flu vaccine that was "required" by the fedgov sometime around 1980 and the public outcry and controversy that ensued.
And besides, just as not being able to imagine someone flying airplanes into buildings, most people couldn't imagine someone releasing large scale bio-weapons.
"And besides, just as not being able to imagine someone flying airplanes into buildings, most people couldn't imagine someone releasing large scale bio-weapons"Someone please remind me why our borders are still open - Appearances are we are sacrificing our safety for the economy.
Yes, and just ONE martyr in the Jihad gets an injection of Smallpox, boards a plane, walks thru the terminal and exposes the population with a domino effect.
Not to panic, but I'd feel better if the vaccine were available, NOW.

Oravax is no longer. It was assimilated into the Peptide Co. Peptide Peptide is a biopharmaceutical company developing vaccines to prevent and treat infectious diseases. It is based in Cambridge, UK and, through its subsidiary OraVax Inc., has operations in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It has a broad portfolio of vaccine product candidates undergoing clinical trials and several technology platforms that provide the basis for further vaccine product candidates.

Now, this MAY be REALLY tin-foil-y, but suppose there is a sleeper working at the company.................
I've heard it said,
"You aren't Paranoid
if you really have Enemies..."
I would not rule out sleepers, moles, or wheels within wheels in all this.
I find it rather 'unesttling' that this company is located near where the terrorists were HQ'ed at. YUP, tin foil comin' loose.
Plum Island is a legend, but not a myth. Just off Orient Point, Long Island, and six miles from the Connecticut coast, Plum Island is the site of a United States Agriculture Department Animal Disease Research Center. The USDA acquired the island from the War Department at the end of World War II with a charter from Congress to study animal diseases such as Foot and Mouth Disease. In surrounding communities, distrust of Plum Island runs deep. Lyme Disease takes its name from a Connecticut town across from the island: many wonder whether birds or swimming animals could have brought the disease from Plum Island. Some suspect this might be the case with West Nile Virus as well. Plum Island officials, of course, dismiss such hypotheses as fantasy.
Therefore, citizens were galvanized by the news, beginning with a September 22, 1999 New York Times article, that the USDA plans to expand its Plum Island laboratory to make it an ultra high-hazard Biosafety Level Four (BSL-4) facility. BSL-4 status would allow the lab to study zoonotic diseases, such as the Nipah Virus, anthrax, and Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis, all lethal to both animals and humans. The Times article, edited by national security correspondent Judith Miller, said that Floyd P. Horn, Administrator of the Agriculture Research Service, had persuaded President Clinton to include Plum Island in his expanded program on bioterrorism. Horn’s reasoning suggested terrorists might target livestock to hurt the US economy.
In stormy public hearings in Connecticut and on Long Island, citizens challenged both the safety and the purpose of the expanded laboratory. Many consider it an intolerable risk in a highly populated area. Though on an island, Plum Island's lab is not truly quarantined. Scientists and other laboratory workers commute to Connecticut and Long Island. ....................The risk of accidental exposure would be greater on Plum Island, where instead of cultures in flasks (as at Yale), there are animal populations infected with zoonotic diseases (an illness communicable from animals to humans under natural conditions). Such diseases have incubation times of days: a worker could easily go home or travel without realizing that they had been infected.
Representatives of the laboratory say it has never had a serious accident – although a contractor was fined in 1995 for improperly storing hazardous chemicals. But in high-risk technologies, performance is best judged by examining a detailed record of hazardous errors and near accidents. At public hearings, citizens were told they could obtain these only through the Freedom of Information Act. Officials also refused to discuss their plans for the laboratory and its animals in case of an emergency at the nearby Millstone nuclear reactor – a facility which itself has a notorious safety and cover-up record............
Though virtually unknown to the layman, there is perhaps no substance more vital to life, (with the possible exception of oxygen and water) than the biologically derived compounds known as Humic and Fulvic acids. Fulvic acids enter into all life processes within plants and animals and wear many hats. When necessary; they act as free-radical scavengers, supply vital electrolytes, enhance and transport nutrients, make water wetter, catalyze enzyme reactions, increase assimilation, stimulate metabolism, chelate essential major and trace elements making them organic, and demonstrate amazing capacity for electrochemical balance. Fulvic acids are involved in indispensable biochemical reactions which influence all biological life-forms, both plant and animal.
THE FULVIC STORY
With regard to currently marketed liquid mineral products the bottom line is not how much mineral they contain, but how much Fulvic acid they contain. Regardless of product cost, even the strongest of the so-called colloidal minerals have, at most, a few cents worth of minerals per quart. If their mineral content is truly colloidal it is of no value to plants of animals since they cannot use minerals in this form. Fulvic acid is the biological substance that changes inorganic colloidal minerals into organically complexed, soluble minerals which can be used by plants and animals. Fulvic acid is an "organic" acid produced by soil microorganisms in trace amounts in healthy soils. It is vital to all life forms and without it there would be no you. In aqueous solutions it is the most powerful natural electrolyte known. It is also the most powerful natural chelating substance known which makes it an extremely effective anti-oxidant.
SCIENTIFIC DOCUMENTATION
A causal glance at the thousands of current scientific references on Fulvic acids will reveal the vital nature of this unique substance. All food, directly or indirectly, originates in the soil. What is taken up by plants also ends up in man's food chain. That which beneficially affects healthy plants will also beneficially affect humans. Fulvic acid is responsible for carrying these organically complexed minerals into the plant, where the Fulvic remains and becomes a vital link in our food chain.
NEW GENERATION DISEASES
It is evident that the pandemic deficiency diseases now occurring in America are the direct result of intensified chemical farming which destroys indigenous soil microorganisms vital to the production of Fulvic acid. Without healthy microorganisms, we have no Fulvic acid. With organically rich, Fulvic enhanced soils, we can have as much as 1,000 times more of vital trace elements and other bio-nutrients in our foods than is found in foods grown in chemically sterile soils. It is physically impossible to eat enough of these commercially grown, nutritionally-hollow fruits and vegetables to overcome the deficiencies currently being manifested in America. It is not enough to emphasize eating adequate amounts of fruits and vegetables. Fulvic acid is the vital and indispensable link in the chain of vibrant health and longevity.
VITAMINS, MINERALS AND ENZYME
The world at large now recognizes the essential nature of vitamins and enzymes. Less understood is that vitamins and enzymes cannot be properly formed without specific, organically-complexed minerals. For instance, zinc is absolutely necessary in the formation of over 200 different enzymes. Calcium is essential in over 500 different enzymes. The billions of cells in our bodies are all capable of producing their own specific enzymes. The metabolic and biochemical systems of the body are all enzyme driven. We have tens of thousands of functional enzyme systems within the healthy human body. Whenever any of these enzyme systems are stressed or malfunction to any degree, degenerative diseases begin to occur. We cannot have vitamins and enzymes without biologically complexed minerals without Fulvic acid.
SUMMARY
As an electrolyte, Fulvic Acid is unsurpassed. It carries all the natural components necessary for balance, cellular integrity and electrical potential. When combined with other supplements, it potentizes and adds positive benefit far beyond its role as an essential electrolyte. As a natural antibiotic, it is a wide spectrum antimicrobial, antiviral and antifungal agent and enhances the effects of colloidal silver, topical silver gels and aloe skin preparations of all kinds. There is no finer treatment for burns, cuts, abrasions and skin disorders than Fulvic acid. As an antioxidant, acting alone or in conjunction with other proven ingredients, it is unrivaled in its ability as a "free-radical" scavenger. Acting at times as an acceptor, and at other times as a donor (depending upon need), Fulvic acid helps to create balance. As a complexing agent, Fulvic acid helps to create balance. As a complexing agent, Fulvic acid can chelate, detoxify and restructure otherwise toxic substances into non-toxic, useful substances for the body. It can reduce mineral compounds from a higher oxidative, unavailable state to a lower oxidative, available ferrous oxide to eliminate iron deficiencies.
There is no other known biological substance that can beneficially modify so many essential biochemical, electrochemical and metabolic processes as can Fulvic acid. It is frequently referred to as "Fantastic Fulvic" and, as the late Dr. Clyde Sandgrin used to express it: "If I had to choose between that liquid mineral and electricity, electricity would have to go." �
