Disclaimer The CDC and its partners in the Clinical Immunization Safety Assessment (CISA) network have developed Clinical Evaluation Tools to help health care providers manage patients with potential adverse reactions from smallpox vaccination in the absence of circulating smallpox virus (pre-event setting). These Tools are based on studies conducted before routine US childhood smallpox vaccination was discontinued in 1972 and on expert opinion; they are not entirely evidence-based. The Tools may not apply to all patients with smallpox vaccine adverse reactions and are not intended to substitute for evaluation by a trained clinician. This Tool was last updated on 3-12-03.

  • Vaccinia Belongs to a Family of Viruses That Is Closely Related to the Smallpox Virus
    VACCINIA INFECTION What is it? Vaccinia belongs to a family of viruses that is closely related to the smallpox virus. Because of the similarities between the smallpox and vaccinia viruses, the vaccinia virus is used in the smallpox vaccine. When this virus is used as a vaccine, it allows our immune systems to develop immunity against smallpox. The smallpox vaccine does not actually contain smallpox virus and cannot cause smallpox. Vaccination usually prevents smallpox infection for at least ten years. The vaccinia vaccine against smallpox was used to successfully eradicate smallpox from the human population. More recently, this virus has also become of interest due to concerns about smallpox being used as an agent of bioterrorism. How is the virus spread? Vaccinia can be spread by touching the vaccination site before it has fully healed or by touching clothing or bandages that have been contaminated with the live virus during vaccination. In this manner, vaccinia can spread to other parts of the body and to other individuals. It cannot be spread through the air. What are the symptoms of vaccinia? Vaccinia virus symptoms are similar to smallpox, but milder. Vaccinia may cause rash, fever, headache and body aches. In certain individuals, such as those with weak immune systems, the symptoms can be more severe. What are the potential side effects of the vaccinia vaccine for smallpox? Normal reactions are mild and go away without any treatment.These include: Soreness and redness in the arm where the vaccine was given Slightly swollen, sore glands in the armpits Low grade fever One in approximately three people will feel badly enough to miss school, work or recreational activities Trouble sleeping Serious reactions are not very common but can occur in about 1,000 in every 1 million people who are vaccinated for the first time.

Received: 10 November 2010; in revised form: 9 December 2010 / Accepted: 10 December 2010 / Published: 22 December 2010 Abstract: Cidofovir [(S)-1-(3-hydroxy-2-phosphonylmethoxypropyl)cytosine, HPMPC] is an acyclic nucleoside analog approved since 1996 for clinical use in the treatment of cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis in AIDS patients. Cidofovir (CDV) has broad-spectrum activity against DNA viruses, including herpes-, adeno-, polyoma-, papilloma- and poxviruses. Among poxviruses, cidofovir has shown in vitro activity against orthopox [vaccinia, variola (smallpox), cowpox, monkeypox, camelpox, ectromelia], molluscipox [molluscum contagiosum] and parapox [orf] viruses. The anti-poxvirus activity of cidofovir in vivo has been shown in different models of infection when the compound was administered either intraperitoneal, intranasal (aerosolized) or topically. In humans, cidofovir has been successfully used for the treatment of recalcitrant molluscum contagiosum virus and orf virus in immunocompromised patients. CDV remains a reference compound against poxviruses and holds potential for the therapy and short-term prophylaxis of not only orthopox- but also parapox- and molluscipoxvirus infections.

Forty years after the eradication of smallpox, emerging zoonotic orthopoxviruses, such as monkeypox, cowpox, and vaccinia viruses continue to infect humans as well as wild and domestic animals. Currently, the geographical distribution of poxviruses in a broad range of hosts worldwide raises concerns regarding the possibility of outbreaks or viral dissemination to new geographical regions. Here, we review the global host ranges and current epidemiological understanding of zoonotic orthopoxviruses while focusing on orthopoxviruses with epidemic potential, including monkeypox, cowpox, and vaccinia viruses.

    THE NATION’S NEWSPAPER PTK2003-04 Collegiate Case Study www.usatodaycollege.com Vaccines could halt Third World health crisis Vaccines By Anita Manning 2 Human beings are born with the bare minimum of defenses against infectious diseases. It is the job of a healthy immune system to strengthen itself over Vaccine use spreading time by recognizing and adapting to new threats. When a new, potentially harmful microbe enters the body, the immune system provides defense By Gary Mihoces 2 against it in the form of antibodies. More importantly, the body will remember the attacker and remember how to kill it. This secondary response provides immunity from future infection. Vaccines increase our protection by stimulating the immune system to generate antibodies against specific antigens. Large-scale vaccination of the population, called herd immunity, also provides an important defense against infectious disease. Herd immunity limits outbreaks because there are not enough susceptible people to support an epidemic. Well before the development of vaccines, humans knew that prior infection to a disease could protect a person from getting that disease again. Recorded history provides many examples of vaccination techniques being used without a full understanding of the mechanisms that allow them to work. As early as the 10th century, Chinese physicians had children inhale dried and powdered smallpox scabs. In 18th Century England, a similar procedure was used when Photo by Tim Dillon, USA TODAY small pox scabs were scratched into children's skin. Unfortunately, in some cases the procedure did backfire and kill the recipient. However, the 1% Cancer vaccine shows mortality rate was a vast improvement over the 50% mortality of smallpox.

Data collected by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) from an ongoing CDC-supported program of enhanced surveillance in the Tshuapa Province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where the annual incidence of human monkeypox is estimated to be 3.5–5/10,000, suggests that there is approximately one healthcare worker infection for every 100 confirmed monkeypox cases. Herein, we describe a study that commenced in February 2017, the intent of which is to evaluate the effectiveness, immunogenicity, and safety of a third-generation smallpox vaccine, IMVAMUNE®, in healthcare personnel at risk of monkeypox virus (MPXV) infection.
