This virus includes the variola virus, which causes small pox. Vaccinia virus of this family is used to prepare the vaccine(antidote) for treating smallpox. The symptoms of monkeypox are also less serious compared to smallpox. It is a virus that spreads from animals. The traces of this virus is found in wild animals but the domestic animals and people going away from the house may catch it and bring it into the house.
