Accidental Vaccinia Virus Exposure: Information Sheet for Laboratory Workers
The University of Iowa Vaccinia Vaccination Information Form I understand that due to my occupational exposure to vaccinia virus, I may be at risk of acquiring infection from vaccinia. I have been given the opportunity to be vaccinated with the smallpox vaccine, at no charge to myself. After reading the Medication Guide and information packet from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) I understand there are risks involved in working with vaccinia virus, in addition to risks in receving the vaccination. My signature below indicates that I have: 1. Read the CDC’s Medication Guide that has been provided to me (follows this informational form). 2. Read the CDC’s "Important Information about Vaccinia (Smallpox) Vaccine For Laboratory Workers" that has been provided to me (follows this informational form). 3. Had an opportunity to ask questions about vaccinia with Biosafety Staff in the Environmental Health and Safety Office (EHS) at 335-8501. 4. Had the opportunity to ask questions about the vaccine with University Employee Health Clinic staff at 356-3631. I have decided to: Decline the vaccination at this time. I understand that by declining this vaccine, I continue to be at risk of acquiring an infection from vaccinia. If I continue to have occupational exposure to this virus and decide to be vaccinated in the future, I may request and receive the vaccination, at no charge to myself. Receive the vaccine, provided through the University Employee Health Clinic (UEHC).

ACAM2000 Clonal Vero Cell Culture Vaccinia Virus (New York City Board of Health Strain) — a Second-Generation Smallpox Vaccine for Biological Defense
International Journal of Infectious Diseases (2004) 8S2, S31—S44 http://intl.elsevierhealth.com/journals/ijid ACAM2000 clonal Vero cell culture vaccinia virus (New York City Board of Health strain) — a second-generation smallpox vaccine for biological defense Thomas P.

Bluma, Tracy Kempa, Richard Nicholsa, Richard Weltzina aAcambis Inc., 38, Sidney Street, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA bBaxter BioScience, USA and Austria cPRA International, Lenexa, KS dSt. Louis University Medical School, St. Louis MO Summary The threat of smallpox as a biological weapon has spurred efforts to create stockpiles of vaccine for emergency preparedness. In lieu of preparing vaccine in animal skin (the original method), we cloned vaccinia virus (New York City Board of Health strain, Dryvax1) by plaque purification and amplified the clone in cell culture. The overarching goal was to produce a modern vaccine that was equivalent to the currently licensed Dryvax1 in its preclinical and clinical properties, and could thus reliably protect humans against smallpox. A variety of clones were evaluated, and many were unacceptably virulent in animal models. One clonal virus (ACAM1000) was selected and produced at clinical grade in MRC-5 human diploid cells. ACAM1000 was comparable to Dryvax1 in immunogenicity and protective activity but was less neurovirulent for mice and nonhuman primates. To meet requirements for large quantities of vaccine after the events of September 11th 2001, the ACAM1000 master virus seed was used to prepare vaccine (designated ACAM2000) at large scale in Vero cells under serum-free conditions. -

(ACIP) General Best Guidance for Immunization
Appendix 1: Glossary Adverse event. An undesirable medical condition that occurs following vaccination which might be truly caused by a vaccine, or it might be pure coincidence. Adverse reaction. An undesirable medical condition that has been demonstrated to be caused by a vaccine. Evidence for the causal relation is usually obtained through randomized clinical trials, controlled epidemiologic studies, isolation of the vaccine strain from the pathogenic site, or recurrence of the condition with repeated vaccination (i.e., rechallenge); synonyms include side effect and adverse effect. Adjuvant. A vaccine component distinct from the antigen that enhances the immune response to the antigen. Antitoxin. A solution of antibodies against a toxin. Antitoxin can be derived from either human (e.g., tetanus immune globulin) or animal (usually equine) sources (e.g., diphtheria and botulism antitoxin). Antitoxins are used to confer passive immunity and for treatment. Hyperimmune globulin (specific). Special preparations obtained from blood plasma from donor pools preselected for a high antibody content against a specific antigen (e.g., hepatitis B immune globulin, varicella-zoster immune globulin, rabies immune globulin, tetanus immune globulin, vaccinia immune globulin, cytomegalovirus immune globulin, botulism immune globulin). Immune globulin. A sterile solution containing antibodies, which are usually obtained from human blood. It is obtained by cold ethanol fractionation of large pools of blood plasma and contains 15%-18% protein. Intended for intramuscular administration, immune globulin is primarily indicated for routine maintenance of immunity among certain immunodeficient persons and for passive protection against measles and hepatitis A. General Best Practice Guidelines for Immunization: Appendix 1: Glossary 189 Immunobiologic. Antigenic substances (e.g., vaccines and toxoids) or antibody- containing preparations (e.g., globulins and antitoxins) from human or animal donors. -
Guidelines for Vaccination of Adult Solid Organ Transplant Candidates and Recipients
Stanford Healthcare Vaccination Subcommittee Issue Date: 7/2018 Guidelines for Vaccination of Adult Solid Organ Transplant Candidates and Recipients A. General considerations regarding vaccination 1. Adult solid organ transplant (SOT) candidates and recipients should receive all vaccines indicated based on their ages, medical conditions, and other factors that apply to non- SOT candidates or recipients (see http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/schedules/hcp/adult.html, Appendix A, and Appendix B) except for the below-listed exceptions or additions. • All SOT candidates and recipients should be vaccinated against pneumococcus with PCV13 and PPSV23. • All SOT candidates and recipients should receive a HepB vaccine series with post-vaccination titers unless they have a documented anti-HBs titer of ≥ 10 mIU/mL after a properly-timed HepB series or unless they have known hepatitis B virus infection. • All SOT candidates and recipients should receive a HepA vaccine series unless previously administered or unless they have a positive hepatitis A virus immunoglobulin G assay. • Live-attenuated vaccines1 should not be administered to SOT recipients, SOT candidates on immunosuppression, or SOT candidates who may undergo SOT within 4 weeks. The timing of inactivated, subunit, or toxoid vaccines is discussed below. Vaccine Notes Influenza Can be given pre- and/or post-SOT (see Appendix C) Tdap or Td Can be given pre- and/or post-SOT Live-attenuated vaccine to be given pre-SOT only; generally those born MMR before 1957 (among others) are considered immune -

Additional Information - Selected References..........Pages 9 - 15 Page -1- INVESTIGATOR’S BROCHURE INTRODUCTION This Investigational New Drug Application is being filed in order to make existing stocks of Vaccinia Immune Globulin available for treatment of complications of vaccinia vaccination or exposure to vaccinia or related pox viruses. Vaccinia Immune Globulin (VIG) (Human) is an isotonic sterile solution of the immunoglobulin fraction of plasma from persons vaccinated with vaccinia vaccine. The current lot, 0448A101A, was released as a licensed product by Baxter Healthcare Corporation in 1995. In 1998 a slight discoloration was noted in this product and the FDA placed a hold on its release. Consequently, VIG can no longer be entered into interstate commerce under terms of the approved license and must therefore revert to IND (investigational new drug) status. CDC follows the June 22, 2001 Recommendations of the Immunization Practices Advisory Committee (ACIP) for Vaccinia (Smallpox) Vaccine. Since 1983 CDC has provided vaccinia vaccine for laboratory workers directly involved with smallpox or closely related orthopox viruses (e.g., monkeypox and vaccinia). Due to clinical trials involving recombinant vaccinia virus vaccines, health-care workers (e.g., physicians and nurses) may now be exposed to vaccinia and recombinant vaccinia viruses and may be considered for vaccinia vaccination. -
(GRADE) for Use of Smallpox Vaccine in Laboratory and Health
Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) for Use of Smallpox Vaccine in Laboratory and Health-Care Personnel at Risk for Occupational Exposure to Orthopoxviruses: Recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, 2015. Background ACAM2000, a live vaccinia virus vaccine, is the only smallpox vaccine currently licensed and available in the United States (U.S.) for vaccination of persons at risk for orthopoxviral disease. ACAM2000 is produced in Vero cells and derived from a clonal isolate of Dryvax, the New York City Board of Health strain widely used during the smallpox eradication campaign [1-5]. Like Dryvax, ACAM2000 is administered percutaneously using a bifurcated needle, and comes with potential risks of serious adverse events [6-7]. Recommendations of the U.S. Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) regarding smallpox (vaccinia) vaccination, most recently revised in 2003, specify Dryvax as the designated smallpox vaccine in routine non-emergency vaccination programs, which primarily involve laboratory and health-care personnel, as well as select military personnel [8-9]. However, as the license for Dryvax was withdrawn in 2008, and remaining vaccine supplies were subsequently destroyed, the need to develop new ACIP recommendations based on ACAM2000 is paramount [10]. Thus, the ACIP Smallpox Vaccine Work Group has applied the GRADE framework to the available evidence evaluating the administration of ACAM2000 in laboratory and health-care personnel at risk for orthopoxviral -
