There isn't an exact cure for smallpox even though there are vaccinations which can help your white blood cells fight the disease. I can explain how the vaccination works. A vaccine is basically dead cells that are parts of the disease injected into your bloodstream that helps you gain immunity. After the strain enters your bloodstream, your white blood cells can help identify the strain of disease and treat it using antibiotics. Once your cells realize how to defeat the disease, you have gained immunity and the exact strain wouldn't be likely to affect you again.
Just recently SIGA Technologies announced that BARDA (Biological and Radiological Research Authority), which is part of HHS, was to issue a $2.8B contract for a post contraction anti-viral "cure" for smallpox to be added to the national stockpile to defend against possible terrorist release of the variola virus.
