New network will research fatal reactions to smallpox vaccine.

The complication, called eczema vaccinatum (EV), occurs almost exclusively in people with a history of eczema, and can develop when people with eczema are given the smallpox vaccine or come into close personal contact with someone who has recently received the vaccine.

NIAID said that the new research group, the Atopic Dermatitis and Vaccinia Network (ADVN), is comprised of three components: a clinical studies consortium, an animal studies consortium and data-coordinating center.
