'WASHINGTON, Dec. 22 — A federal district judge ruled Monday that the Defense Department could not compel members of the armed forces to be vaccinated against anthrax without their consent. The judge, Emmet G. Sullivan, issued a preliminary injunction that prohibits Pentagon officials from 'inoculating service members without their consent.' The judge found that the vaccine in question, intended to protect military personnel against the potentially deadly effects of inhaled anthrax, was 'an investigational drug,' being used for an unapproved purpose.'
