Time to contact the health center and vaccinate your kids.

You cannot commercially obtain smallpox vaccine. I tried hard about a year and a half ago to get some for my kids.

However, all is not lost. If push came to shove and a real outbreak arose, what would Edward Jenner do? (WWEJD?)

There's a low-tech solution at hand. Think about it.

I have to say I am mystified. I have heard about this animal small pox that is contagious but not deadly to humans, and that once healed from it the person is immunized from Small Pox. I have also heard about kooks talking about weird potions.

If you can find a cow with cow pox you may have a solution. Question is where do you find one? Or has that been eliminated with modern animal care?
