ACIP quotes

"Initial cardiac-related adverse events included myocardial
infarction (heart attack) and acute angina, although officials would emphasize
that pre-existing risk factors (for heart disease) were in evidence for the
individuals in question ."

"Also in April, a
military reservist was reported to have died following vaccination with both
smallpox and anthrax vaccines."

"Salk, was precipitated by a particularly disturbing development, in which one of the manufacturers (producing the live vaccine) distributed a particularly
virulent product; consequently, a large number of children receiving the
vaccine contracted polio, many becoming paralyzed. "

"Of particular relevance here are the subsequent debates, some forty or
so years later, around the exact same vaccines. Whereas at mid-century,
polio was endemic in much of the world, including, technically, the United
States, by the last quarter of the century disease incidence had declined
dramatically. As very few cases of “wild” polio (as the naturally-occurring
disease was known) appeared each year, the case was once again being put
forward that recommending continued use of OPV was poor medical practice
and, in fact, unethical."

In June 2001, A.C.I.P. stated that “Because the risk of smallpox occurring as a result of deliberate release is considered low, and the population at risk for such an exposure cannot be determined, the risks of vaccine complications outweigh the benefits for pre-attack vaccination.” Tweet
