| smallpox | <disease, virology> This acute viral disease once claimed a high mortality rate, but was officially announced as globally eradicated in 1979. This was due to who vaccination programs. Headache, vomiting and fever precede, the eruption of a widespread rash that is raised, vesicular and finally pustular. The eruption follows a set pattern of dissemination, commencing on the head and face. When the final stage is passed scars (pockmarks) are left to disfigure the skin. (27 Sep 1997) |

| smallpox vaccine | A live vaccinia virus vaccine of calf lymph or chick embryo origin, used for immunization against smallpox.

Complications that result from smallpox vaccination include vaccinia, secondary bacterial infections, and encephalomyelitis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| smallpox virus | <virology> Virus responsible for smallpox. Said to have been completely eradicated. Large DNA virus (brick like, 250-390nm x 20-260nm) with complex outer and inner membranes (not derived from plasma membrane of host cell). (18 Nov 1997) |
| malignant smallpox | Malignant smallpox, usually of the haemorrhagic form. Synonym: malignant smallpox. Variola miliaris, a form of varioloid in which the eruption consists of miliary vesicles without the formation of pustules. (05 Mar 2000) |

| West Indian smallpox | A mild form of smallpox caused by a less virulent strain of the virus. Synonym: Cuban itch, Kaffir pox, milkpox, pseudosmallpox, pseudovariola, variola minor, West Indian smallpox, whitepox. Origin: Pg. Alastrar, to scatter over (05 Mar 2000) |
| confluent smallpox | A severe form in which the lesions run into each other, forming large suppurating areas. (05 Mar 2000) |
| haemorrhagic smallpox | A severe and frequently fatal form of smallpox accompanied by extravasation of blood into the skin in the early stage, or into the pustules at a later stage, accompanied often by nosebleed and haemorrhage from other orifices of the body. Synonym: fulminating smallpox, variola haemorrhagica. (05 Mar 2000) |
| discrete smallpox | The usual form in which the lesions are separate and distinct from each other. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fulminating smallpox | A severe and frequently fatal form of smallpox accompanied by extravasation of blood into the skin in the early stage, or into the pustules at a later stage, accompanied often by nosebleed and haemorrhage from other orifices of the body.

Smallpox (also known by the Latin names Variola or Variola vera) is a highly contagious disease unique to humans. It is caused by two virus variants called Variola major and Variola minor. V. major is the more deadly form, with a typical mortality of 20-40 percent of those infected. The other type, V. minor, only kills 1% of its victims. Many survivors are left blind in one or both eyes from corneal ulcerations, and persistent skin scarring - pockmarks - is nearly universal. ...
