Smallpox vaccine is contagious (live virus varicella I think) and can have awful side effects (full body blisters, death) for people with eczema which is far more common. Even without exzema, side effects are hard.

Looking at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smallpox_vaccine#MVA-BN https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smallpox_vaccine#MVA-BN there is a new non-replicating vaccine from 2013.
