Is smallpox is a fast or slow death?
Death from smallpox was iffy, and slow. There were two different strains of smallpox, one causing about 1% fatalities, the other about 30%. The disease caused scarring of the skin and blindness in many of it's victims, and death may occur as a result of secondary infection. In 1979, the World Health Organization announced that smallpox had been eradicated from the planet through a program of vaccination. There have been no cases since then, and it is the only disease that has been eradicated.

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.
