title: Know these facts before facing smallpox vaccine.
abstract: Participants in the smallpox vaccination program report minimal disruption to staffing and very few adverse outcomes. There have been no cases of transmission from health care workers to patients. Consider giving staff members an excused day off if they feel ill after receiving the vaccine. Vaccinated staff must perform daily bandage checks and appropriate hand hygiene.
