I'm pleased to hear Dr. Frist join this fight with his op/ed. It's about time and it's about our lives. DOCTOR Frist should remember he's a doctor first and was a senator SECOND.

I was advised to take the smallpox shot or vaccination while at the University of Alabama, by my physician, in 1970 for my bad case of shingles. After the vaccination the shingles went away and have never returned.

For that reason plus the fear of smallpox I would gladly take another vaccination the day it becomes available.
