Abstract
Concern regarding the use of smallpox for bioterrorism has led to the reintroduction of smallpox vaccination. The historic background leading to protective methods against smallpox disease, the adverse reactions and contraindications associated with vaccination, and the ongoing development of potentially safer smallpox vaccines are reviewed here.
