US To Buy $500 Million In Smallpox Vaccine - Why?
Why is the U.S. Doubling Its Protection Against this
Non-existent Health Enemy?
By Dr. Mercola
The U.S. government has awarded a $433-million contract to
pharmaceutical company Siga Technologies for 1.7 million doses of an
experimental smallpox drug called ST-246 (Tecovirimat).
In this time of limited resources and heavy budget deficits,
the decision to spend nearly half a billion dollars to stockpile a
drug of questionable safety and effectiveness, for a strictly
theoretical danger, is puzzling -- and that is an extreme
understatement.
