Would you get
the smallpox
vaccine?

Perform a simple laboratory simulation of a test for chicken pox with your students which can then lead to an in depth discussion of the risks and benefits of broad vaccination programs to agents of bioterrorism. The immunologic aspects of vaccination programs can also be discussed along with the fascinating phenomenon of the “herd effect”.

Suitable for 8th grade through adults.
