Horrors of vaccination exposed and illustrated - Petition to the President to abolish compulsory vaccination in Army and Navy

"Horrors of Vaccination Exposed and Illustrated" by Chas. M. Higgins is a critical pamphlet written in the early 20th century. This text advocates for the abolition of compulsory vaccination in the military, arguing it endangers public health and violates individual rights. The book is centered on the contention that vaccination is often more lethal than the diseases it aims to prevent and calls for medical freedom as a fundamental American principle. The opening of the pamphlet sets a compelling tone, where Higgins articulates his fervent appeal to President Woodrow Wilson, addressing the unconstitutionality of compulsory vaccination. He references various historical medical practices and their adverse consequences to underscore his point that forced vaccination can lead to more harm than good. Through vivid language and references to medical authorities, Higgins establishes the case against the practice, arguing that it inflicts serious health risks while infringing on personal liberties, ultimately calling for a complete reevaluation of vaccination policies in the Army and Navy.
