单词 vaccinia
释义

vaccinian.

Brit. /vakˈsɪnɪə/, U.S. /vækˈsɪniə/
Origin: Apparently formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: vaccine n., -ia suffix1.
Etymology: Apparently < vaccine n. + -ia suffix1.
Medicine.
1. Originally: the disease resulting from inoculation with infective material derived from pocks of cowpox (now historical); (occasionally also) †cowpox occurring naturally in cattle (obsolete). In later use: infection with or disease caused by vaccinia virus in humans, cattle, or other animals, resulting from vaccination or from contact with recently vaccinated people or infected animals; an instance or case of this.In humans, vaccination with vaccinia virus typically results in a localized eruption of vesicles and pustules at the site of vaccination, which heals with some scarring. In some cases, esp. in persons with eczema or certain other skin conditions, it may result in a generalized eruption (generalized vaccinia). It may also result in a severe illness with progressive enlargement and necrosis of the original lesions (progressive vaccinia), esp. in those who are immunosuppressed.
