I don't think I even noticed I had one of these until my decade-younger boyfriend-cum-husband noticed mine when we were in bed early in our relationship -- it's on the back of my left arm -- but it's a small price to pay to have helped eradicate smallpox ... assuming it's not making a comeback in Brooklyn, etc.

Yes, and have scars from the childhood diseases where there were no vaccines back then. Also took the sugar cube as well.
I must have had some reaction when I got mine. I had a lump instead of an indention. I finally noticed a few years ago that it had disappeared.
Thank goodness smallpox was eradicated or we’d likely be seeing kids coming down with that nowadays too.
