Surely these last two examples, right at our own doors, show that vaccination is little or no protection, or, to say the least, is a very poor protection, from smallpox, or has such a limited duration or period of protection that it fades out very rapidly and needs to be renewed and repeated frequently, with great possible danger to health and life, as already proved, and admitted by medical authorities previously quoted, so that this “cure” not only often fails but may become finally worse than the “disease.”
Example Fourth. Smallpox in Germany, the best vaccinated country in Europe, as given in U. S. Public Health Report for January 23, 1914:
Record of Smallpox Cases and Vaccinal Conditions for Three Years, 1908, 1909, 1910
| Total cases | 917 | |
| Vaccinated and re-vaccinated | 671 | |
| Unvaccinated | 143 | |
| Unknown | 28 | |
| Vaccinated unsuccessfully or too late | 75 | |
| —— | ||
| 917 |
Here we plainly see that in this much-vaccinated country—the pride of vaccinators—the cases of smallpox among the well vaccinated and re-vaccinated were over four times the number of cases among the unvaccinated! Surely this example, with the two previous ones, clearly proves that vaccination is not very much of a protection! And surely there is nothing in these examples which any vaccinator can get much comfort from or use as a moral or medical justification of the shameful and evil practice of forcing compulsory vaccination upon the whole community under the shocking falsehood that it is the infallible and only protection against smallpox! And surely these forceful and humiliating facts give a stinging rebuke to this false contention.
Example Fifth. The fully vaccinated U. S. battle-ship Ohio versus the unvaccinated City of Niagara Falls, N. Y.
A smallpox epidemic raged on this battle-ship at Guantanamo, Cuba, in December, 1913, and January, 1914, with these figures:
| Population about | 1000 |
| Smallpox Cases | 29 |
| Deaths | 5 |
Per contra, an epidemic existed in Niagara Falls from 1912 to 1914, inclusive, as follows:
| Population | 40,000 | |
| Total cases of Smallpox | 550 | |
| Deaths from Smallpox | 1 | |
| Deaths from Vaccination | 3 | |
| Never vaccinated | 483 | |
| Vaccinated over five years | 26 | |
| Vaccinated for less than 5 years | 5 | |
| Not stated | 36 | |

| 550 |
