✦ Synopsis

Over the past year improvements have been made in recombinant vaccinia virus gene expression and a new method for inserting DNA into the poxvirus genome has been developed, along with alternative methods for selecting recombinant viruses. Attenuated and non-replicating vaccinia virus and avian poxvirus vectors are now being used successfully. Field trials of an oral, wild-life rabies vaccine and phase 1 testing of human vaccines derived from vaccinia virus are underway.
