MeSH definition : A live VACCINIA VIRUS vaccine of calf lymph or chick embryo origin, used for immunization
against smallpox. It is now recommended only for laboratory workers exposed to smallpox
virus. Certain countries continue to vaccinate those in the military service. Complications
that result from smallpox vaccination include vaccinia, secondary bacterial infections,
and encephalomyelitis. (Dorland, 28th ed); A VACCINIA VIRUS vaccine used for immunization against SMALLPOX. It is now recommended
only for laboratory workers exposed to SMALLPOX VIRUS. Certain countries continue
to vaccinate those in the military service. Rare complications most often associated
with older generation smallpox vaccines include VACCINIA, secondary bacterial infections,
and ENCEPHALOMYELITIS. Because MONKEYPOX VIRUS and SMALLPOX VIRUS are both ORTHOPOXVIRUS
and are closely related smallpox vaccines provide effective CROSS-PROTECTION against
MONKEYPOX (https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/clinicians/smallpox-vaccine.html).; A VACCINIA VIRUS vaccine used for immunization against SMALLPOX. It is now recommended
