Orthopox Fun Facts
Orthopoxviruses, including variola (smallpox) and vaccinia (used in vaccines), have the ability to encode their own RNA polymerase, enabling them to replicate their DNA in the host cell's cytoplasm without relying on the host's machinery.
Orthopoxviruses can create an extensive range of symptoms in their hosts, from mild skin lesions to severe systemic illness, depending on the specific virus and host response.
