Interesting thing: the mpox vaccine offers some protection against smallpox.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cdc.gov&#x2F;vaccines&#x2F;hcp&#x2F;vis&#x2F;vis-statements&#x2F;smallpox-monkeypox.html" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cdc.gov&#x2F;vaccines&#x2F;hcp&#x2F;vis&#x2F;vis-statements&#x2F;smallpox...</a><p>There has not been any smallpox vaccination generally available to US citizens for a while before this (you could get one if you were traveling to Somolia, but otherwise zip).
