Abstract

Significant efforts are being made to rid the population of the disease in high-prevalence geographic areas.[1] Variola is regarded as a disease that can spread from person to person; no other known reservoir of the smallpox virus has been found. Recently, a very comparable pox condition known as "monkeypox" was discovered in monkeys, raising questions about the clinical and epidemiological connections between these two illnesses. In terms of its clinical manifestation, monkeypox is comparable to smallpox or the development of widespread vaccinia in humans. The origin of monkeypox raises a number of significant problems about its epizootiology. Was it an unintentional spread of the variola virus in 14 captive monkeys that a human companion was harboring? Is it a form of the variola virus that was formerly adapted to simians and is currently enzootic in some species? Regarding the vaccinia virus.
