YOu may have hit the nailon the head! We need to make vaccine available. State a couple of weeks ago that both the Fr and Gr appeared to be afraid of the "Bully, Sadamm. Now we know a possible reason why.

THANKS for the information/translation! PING

Don't worry Germany/France. Should you be attacked, the USA will stand with you. /sarcasm

Oh, smallpox ain't so bad. Only 30% fatalities.

The Soviets developed a strain of hemorhagic small pox called black pox. 90% fatal, and VERY contagous.

Any bets on who hired the scientists after the Soviet Union collapsed???

Bump.

German reader's ping.

Here's those links. Both are hammers.

Many thanks, longjack.

Excellent translation. As a translator myself, I know how much work it is.

I was vaccinated against smallpox as a child. Do you know if that vaccination still protects me?

They want dead American soldiers to help Democarrots defeat Bush in 2004.

Thanks for the compliment. Translating is good for keeping my mind alert, if nothing else. I'm not a translator.

I was vaccinated in the 50's (USA), my wife in the 60's (D). From what I've heard it is no longer effective, however with a previous inoculation a booster may be all we need.

No wonder that the birth rate in Europe is declining.

These people are a bunch of cowards!

[elhombrelibre]

True, but worse. They are making money from a dictator who starves his people, and they are pretending they have the moral high ground. 80 German companies have sold WMD to Saddam. That's evil. Where's the moral outrage in Germany about that?

Here's one SPD response:

Not publicizing the document has fueled suspicion that the Red-Green coalition hushed up the actual threat by Iraq

Interesting that an article about possible nuclear powerplant attacks in England being hushed up by the Greens there was just posted yesterday.

Hmmmmm.

Guess it would be hard to gather so many anti-war protestors
if they knew they were the target, huh.

[P.O.E.]

Just like Clinton did on his watch, the socialists, such as in Germany, are closing their eyes, hoping it will go away.

Libs are famous for not knowing how to get anything done, only how to take your money, skim off the top, and buy somebody else's vote with it.

They know if the population demanded real solutions to this real problem, they'd be out of a job. In other words, it's all about saving their own political skin, and everybody else be d#mned.

such drastic language was chosen so that funds for vaccines would be quickly allocated by the Budget Committee.

Germans were threatened and turned French. Choice of evils defense for kissing Iraq's a$$.
