The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a guidance advising the blood industry that potential donors who have received the smallpox vaccine should be deferred for at least 21 days.
Potential donors should be asked whether they have received the smallpox vaccine within the past eight weeks, the agency said. Those who have had the shot should be deferred until the scab from the vaccine has separated from the skin or for 21 days post-vaccination, whichever is later.
