Israel Will Expand Its Smallpox Vaccinations, but Not to Everyone
Israeli officials said today that they had decided against vaccinating the entire population against the smallpox virus. But they said they were expanding the number of soldiers and health care workers who would be vaccinated to 40,000 or more.
The officials said they made the decision after concluding that the likelihood of a smallpox attack, by terrorists or another country, was slim. A more realistic goal, they said, was to ensure that the country’s doctors and nurses could carry out a crash program to inoculate the entire population quickly if a single case of smallpox were discovered. The officials said they hoped they could vaccinate the entire population of six million Israelis in about four days if the need arose.
Israel has given 17,000 vaccinations with 2 recipients and 2 contacts requiring hospitalization. They have had no deaths, but then we only expect 1 death in 1,000,000 vaccinations. No deaths in 17,000 gives us no evidence of the death rate other than it is likely less than 3/17000 = .0176%. We can translate a zero numerator into a confidence interval of less than 3 divided by the denominator. So we should still use the old estimate of mortality.
If Israel thinks that the risk of a smallpox terror attack is very small, why are we diverting resources towards a vaccination policy in this country? Public health dollars are currently a zero sum game. Thus, investing in smallpox vaccination does 2 things: [1] it puts the recipients and their family contacts at some risk; [2] it diverts public health dollars from some other desirable program – Smallpox Plan May Force Other Health Cuts: States Cite Inability To Fund Vaccinations. I remain against this policy until someone can convince me that we have a significant risk. I support having the vaccine ready to go. We should have personnel trained to give the vaccine in the very unlikely event of a true smallpox case.

Is Israel using the same smallpox vaccination as the U.S.A.is?Why aren’t we using the same smallpox vaccination as we did 30 years ago?
Dear colleagues!
You are troubled by Doctor Lencautan Viorel from Moldova.Iam 34 years old.My
nationality is Jew.I am the doctor(the diploma 01470 from 26.06.1994 Moldova).
I am married.My wafe Marina is Doctor too(the diploma AS -0007195
from 30.06.2000 Moldova).
I participate in a medical symposium in Israel, where I was invited
by the colleagues from Tel-Aviv.I was informated about different
hight quality drugs,in the hospital”Belinson” city Petah-Ticva and in other
hospital.Iwas very impressed by yuor drugs. They have a hight quality,side
effects insignificant and the pacients bear their weel.There are a lot of branch
of different drug factory from all
of world, but your drugs aren’t yet in Moldova.Analysing hight clinical effect
of your drugs,I want to suggest you to co-operate,
opening a branch of your company in Moldova.
I with my wafe are the citizen of Moldova ,we know all the peculiarities in
the medical,juridical,financial system,we can assume the responsability in the
organisation and management your branch in our country.We think we have enough
acquantances and practice for this activity.
If our proposal is interesting for you,we ask you to give to us the answer
and:
-the list of your all drugs and their pharmacodynamies;
-price-list(in dollars USA).
I know Jew’s languages,but we haven’t the pocibility to communicate in this
way by computer.We ask you to send the information in English,Russian or
Roumanian languages.
We hope for an advantageous co-operation for each-other.
