Abstract
The records of all children who received smallpox vaccination in a large comprehensive care clinic were reviewed for complications. There were 944 vaccinations performed during 1968. Of these, 539 were primary vaccinations, 32 on children in the age group less than 1, and 517 on children in the age group 1 to 4.
There were nine complications observed, all in children in the age group 1 to 4. Five of these complications were generalized erythematous urticarial eruptions, three were auto-inoculations, and one was a secondary bacterial infection at the site of vaccination.
