What year was that? Must have been a long time ago. I tried to get one around 2010 but was told they only give it to scientists and workers that actually study the virus in Atlanta. Apparently the US has 15 million smallpox vaccines in case of an outbreak.
They claim to have eradicated smallpox, so they stopped giving the vaccines and stopped requiring all school children from having it. In the 60s, it was required for you to start public school.
So all of us older people had it. You can see the small scar on our left upper arms.

My older brothers all have it. I don’t (born 69’)
