The smallpox vaccine is not given with a normal needle. It is not a “shot,” like many vaccinations. The vaccine is given using a two-pronged needle that is dipped into the vaccine solution. When removed, the needle retains a droplet of the vaccine. The needle is then used to prick the skin a number of times in a few seconds.

bifukcatsionnaya igla
Net, ona ne imeet otnosheniya k Jenner, t.k. bila isobretena mnogo posze.Ona(esli mne ne izmenyaet pamyat)nazivaetsya "Bifukcatsionnaya igla"-nado proverit nazvanie. No ya uverena absolyutno v tom, kak ona viglyadit. Kak shvejnaya igla,no ushko rasrezano. Polushaetsya mini-vilka s 2 zubchikami. Eeopuskayut v vaccinu, ona nabiraet metodom poverhnostnogo natyazeniya rovno kapelku(ne bolshe). Potom ne kolyat, o kak bi legko pokalivayut kozu neskolko ras. Smisl v tom, chtobi ne popalo mnogo vakcini na kozu, kak eto bivalo s peryami.

I guess that it was 1960-70yy when they have found the decition. And in one of the scientific magazines which was dedicated to the fight with small pox, they name it \"the revolution in the small pox vaccination business\". It was so easy to use,to clean,without any pain, that it became possible to provide immunization at every single village,without a modern equipment.

Receiving the Vaccine
The smallpox vaccine is not given with a hypodermic needle. It is not a shot as most people have experienced. The vaccine is given using a bifurcated (two-pronged) needle that is dipped into the vaccine solution. When removed, the needle retains a droplet of the vaccine. The needle is used to prick the skin a number of times in a few seconds. The pricking is not deep, but it will cause a sore spot and one or two droplets of blood to form. The vaccine usually is given in the upper arm.
If the vaccination is successful, a red and itchy bump develops at the vaccine site in three or four days. In the first week, the bump becomes a large blister, fills with pus, and begins to drain. During the second week, the blister begins to dry up and a scab forms. The scab falls off in the third week, leaving a small scar. People who are being vaccinated for the first time have a stronger reaction than those who are being revaccinated. The following pictures show the progression of the site where the vaccine is given.
