"Side effects or no side effects, our government is bordering on treason for not allowing the public to voluntarily have the smallpox vaccine BEFORE an outbreak. After that, you'll need a machine gun and a tank to get near the facility for vaccinations."

I wouldn't call it treason, but I would call it unconstitutional, that they are curtailing our individual freedoms, by not allowing us to exercise our own free will to get the vaccines. The government should not be controlling it. I wonder what would happen if the companies, which make them, would start to sell them? I don't see why they shouldn't. Did the Congress pass a law that they are not allowed to?
The government can have their stockpile, but the companies should be able to sell them to doctors, who in turn could make it available.
From everything I read, waiting for an outbreak before providing vaccines could easily result in millions dead, and it will be the government's fault for not making the vaccine available in time. Does the government really want to have the lost lives of millions of people on its hands?
