1 Types: Variola major, or smallpox, has a death rate of 30%. 2  Variola minor, or alastrim, is a milder form of the virus with a death rate of 1%. 3  Four types of variola exist: classic, hemorrhagic, malignant, and modified.
The Variola virus, which is the most virulent member of Genus Orthopoxvirus, is the causative agent of smallpox. It specifically infects humans. The primary reason for infection in humans is due to its ability to evade the host immune responses, and avoid complement activation.he smallpox vaccine is a live vaccine, derived from the vaccinia virus. The vaccine does not contain or cause a variola infection. It provides an individual with immunity for 3 to 5 years, which decreases from after that period of time. The vaccine has provided protection to 95% of the vaccinated individuals.
