And this is the vaccine:
Smallpox (J07BX)

The smallpox vaccine is still administered (but not mandatory anymore) and that report is from 2015, it's about side effect from vaccines.
Side Effects = administered
And why is that if it is "eradicated"?

>>Ein Heilmittel gegen die Pocken existiert nicht. Lediglich eine vorbeugende Schutzimpfung ist möglich.
>>There is no cure for smallpox. Only preventive vaccination is possible.

A friend of mine got one ~2 years ago for traveling to Mongolia.
- dthul 4y agoSo what it boils down to: The old (1st generation) vaccine is still being held in storage but currently not available to the general public (says https://www.bag.admin.ch/bag/de/home/krankheiten/krankheiten-im-ueberblick/variola.html https://www.bag.admin.ch/bag/de/home/krankheiten/krankheiten..., FAQ number 10). It could be made available in case of an outbreak. There is no approval for any of the more modern vaccines.
