Make sure you're SURE whomever you collect smallpox pus from doesn't have HIV. :shudder: And Hepatitis. HPV. Oh, this could just get to be a real mess.

You don't need their blood or body fluids, just a little of their virus but I'd probably select people who could be blood donors for that reason. Even when the government gives the vaccine, the virus often spreads to others without them trying. That's the good thing about this vaccine, it's just a live unattenuated virus and doesn't really require the government to spread it.
