I was given Anthrax but decided to refuse the Bubonic Plague jab. A good job too as I was really ill for three days after the anthrax jab. One fellow crew member ended up in hospital after deciding to have both of the above jabs in the one day as instructed by senior officers at the time.

Those of us who refused to have both jabs were told that the insurance companies would be made aware in the event of any claim being made!

I believe that the anthrax jab was a "live vaccine" that will "never" be used again.
