The last naturally occurring case of smallpox (Variola minor) was diagnosed on 26 October 1977. Infection with smallpox is focused in small blood vessels of the skin and in the mouth and throat before disseminating. In the skin it results in a characteristic maculopapular rash and, later, raised fluid-filled blisters.V. major produced a more serious disease and had an overall mortality rate of 30â35 percent.n the United States and South Africa a much milder form of smallpox, variola minor, was recognized just before the close of the 19th century.
