Nice to know the government is doing something sensible. If I were in this ER worker's shoes, I'd be scrambling to find the line for smallpox vaccination. His risk of exposure is not negligible, while the risk from the vaccine is very small. A slam dunk, in my humble opinion. Marc de Piolenc measl@mfn.org wrote:

The military is set to have 300,000 doses of smallpox vaccine by the end of this year. Should we be vaccinated? I was vaccinated as a child, but most of us who have been vaccinated are no longer immune.
