Vaccination
Regarding your question about vaccination: these are technical matters which have not been specifically mentioned in the teachings, and consequently the Guardian cannot make any statement about them. No doubt medical science will progress tremendously as time goes by, and the treatment of disease become more perfect.

Quote of the Day
Jamal 15 Sultan 182 B.E.
The Assemblies must be wise and gentle in dealing with such cases (i.e. Bahá’ís using alcoholic beverages), but at the same time must not tolerate a prolonged and flagrant disregard of the Bahá’í Teachings as regards alcohol.
