Can people who have recovered from Smallpox contract it again?

No you cannot get Smallpox twice. Like other Pox viruses if you have it once and survive it you have immunity to it from that point on. However, in the current day and age smallpox has been eradicated in the natural world It is ridiculously impossible and improbable that anyone currently has or has had a case of Smallpox since the 1970's when the last cases occurred. There is a vaccine for Smallpox but it is reserved by governments for use in case of a biological terror attack.


How did people protect themselves from the black death in the middle ages?

They got themselves inoculated. Inoculation is when you chose a vein for the 'doctors' to cut open so they could stuff pus in it. That pus is from a person who has smallpox. That infected pus is meant to make you immune to smallpox. This means you will never have smallpox. After they stuff pus in your vein they sew it which means it leaves a really big scar. The people who got themselves inoculated eventually got smallpox or died after the inoculation because they had a vein cut open.

How do you stop smallpox?

A man noticed how milkmaids did not get affected by smallpox, so they assumed that it was something to do with cows or milk that stopped them catching smallpox. I turns out that it was a similair, but less deadly, virus called cowpox that was preventing milkmaids getting smallpox. Cowpox was a vaccine against smallpox - meaning if you have had cowpox, you can't get smallpox.
