"ACAM2000 is administered as a #live Vaccinia virus preparation that is inoculated into the skin by pricking the skin surface. Following a successful inoculation, a #lesion will develop at the site of the vaccination (i.e., a “take”). The #virus growing at the site of this inoculation lesion can be spread to other parts of the body or even to other people. Individuals who receive vaccination with ACAM2000 must take precautions to prevent the spread of the vaccine virus and are considered vaccinated within 28 days."
