IN order that there shall be no misunderstanding about the serious
charge which I bring against vaccination, as being now actually more
dangerous to public health and human life than natural smallpox,
and the equally serious charge which I make against vaccinating
doctors--who now control our Departments of Health and Vital
Statistics--of denying and concealing these facts from the people,
I now issue this special challenge to the Departments of Health of
the City and State of New York, which cover a population of eleven
millions, and with whose records I am more familiar, that I will
undertake to prove from their death certificates and vital records,
now concealed and withheld from the public, that there have been more
deaths from vaccination than from smallpox _in every year_ for the past
fifteen years in the City and State of New York. If they deny the truth
of these charges I further solemnly challenge them to open their now
concealed records to public examination and I will prove the truth of
my charges from these records. Will they now dare to deny these charges
or will they dare to refuse to open their heretofore hermetically
concealed records to give the full medical and statistical truth to the
people on these most important points?
