Thank you for posting this. My Mom, eldest sister, and brother all received the "original" smallpox vaccine. I asked my Mom if she could recall having any side effects and she said no.

So did I, as a kiddywink back in the old sod. I don't recall any problems either. I also got the BCG jab. As a result, I am forever plagued with false positive TB tests!
