INFO PAPER

Smallpox is a serious, contagious, and sometimes fatal infectious disease. There is no specific treatment for smallpox disease, and the only prevention is vaccination. The name smallpox is derived from the Latin word for “spotted” and refers to the raised bumps that appear on the face and body of an infected person.

Sample Q&A: Smallpox – Vaccine Description

What are Acambis’s responsibilities to CDC and DoD?
Acambis developed ACAM2000 under contracts with the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as part of its preparations for a public health emergency. ACAM2000 is the primary smallpox vaccine for use in an emergency and forms the majority of the US Government's smallpox vaccine Strategic National Stockpile (SNS). Acambis is currently in negotiations with the CDC to provide the US Government with a long-term ACAM2000 production capability that is located entirely in the US.
