WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Bush on Friday announced a plan to start vaccinating American soldiers and civilians, including himself, against smallpox as a precaution against an enemy attack.

"Our government has no information that a smallpox attack is imminent, yet it is prudent to prepare for the possibility that terrorists who kill indiscriminately would use diseases as a weapon," Bush said in announcing the plan.

The plan would begin with vaccinations of about 1 million soldiers and health-care workers, and expand to millions more emergency personnel. The vaccine would eventually be offered to the general public on a voluntary basis.

Bush said the vaccinations will start with the military and other U.S. government personnel in high-risk portions of the world.

"I will receive the vaccine along with our military," Bush said, while noting neither his family nor his staff would receive it because health officials do not believe vaccination is necessary for the general public.
