Abstract
Sir—The growing threat of bioterrorism has led to the reintroduction of smallpox vaccination programs [1]. The potential dermatologic and neurologic adverse events associated with the vaccine have raised significant concerns among health care professionals and vaccine recipients [1, 2]. In the past, cardiac complications, predominantly myocarditis and pericarditis, have been rare occurrences [3–5].
