Original Note:
After smallpox was eliminated from the world, routine vaccination against smallpox among the general public was stopped because it was no longer needed. https://www.cdc.gov/smallpox/vaccine-basics/who-gets-vaccination.html When the vaccine was routine, deaths from side effects were very rare: between 1 and 2 people per million vaccinated. https://www.cdc.gov/smallpox/vaccine-basics/vaccination-effects.html
