@athletejmv85 Also, I'm only in my mid twenties. I lost over 30lbs in one month and had trouble functioning and speaking. I'll leave my experience at that. All I can say is there is some unethical stuff going on to Soldiers...

I'm a disabled vet that went through Hell with this vaccine. I had side effects within two hours, but yet the military didn't make the connection and diagnosed myself with Panic Disorder... Go figure. My side effects included severe muscle cramping, migraines with loss of vision, passing out, puking, severe diarrhea, panic/anxiety attacks. For a little over half a year I felt like being held under water and breathing through a straw; what a nightmare. I never had a medical history before this.

@eemtek

in 1998-99 I got 4 out of 6 before getting shipped back from Korea.(USAF) Soon after I developed depression, panic attacks, and severe muscular and joint problems in my arms. Does anyone know of an organization or resource group for these issues. My VA lady (who is great) says its being ignored by the Gov't/Military. (same-same) In her opinion, soon there will be a surge in Veteran Health issues due to the thrax.

I'm concerned. Will I make 65? 75? was that the plan all along?

quit giving the vaccines and studying them, how about the ones of us that got it from 98 to 2000 that have multiple diseases that are clearly linked to it.. instead of trying to prove this shot is safe, why not find a cure for us that are suffering.. I'm taking chemo daily just to lower my immune system from damaging my tissues, sound familiar. Maybe the new shots are good, maybe it was the squalene that was in the shots, who cares, take care of the victims first!!!

I am a former US Soldier who was deployed to Iraq in '04 and '07. I have had 4 of the 8 doses of this vaccine. I had the first three doses done between Dec 03 and April 04 the reason I had only three is because the first one caused me severe abdominal pain after 4 days of the dose. The second dose, just slight pain to the injection site. Third dose. I was medivac out of Iraq. I once again had a severe reaction to the shot about 4 days after receiving it

This video concerns the 1,500 volunteer subjects who were given the 2008 FDA-licensed Emergent Biosolutions BioThrax IM (intramuscular) vaccine.

It is important to note that the FDA registration of BioThrax clearly states that the efficacy of the vaccine to prevent anthrax infection is not proven.
