Dear Ministry of Defence,

Could you please inform me if our troops today are vaccinated with pertussis (whooping Cough) to act as an adjuvant for the anthrax vaccine as we were in the Gulf War 90/91( Op Granby)?

Also if the MOD has awarded either a War Pension or compensation (in any form) to a person/persons who recieved any combination of the vaccines administered during 1990/1991 in preparation for the Gulf War, BUT DID NOT ENTER any of Saudi Arabia, Iraq and kuwait (AKA Theatre) during that time?

Regards,

Gavin Roberts
