Summary Introduction

To determine:

The reason that government cite for maintaining small pox virus.

Introduction:

Small pox is a deadly and contagious diseases, which is caused by Variola Virus. Variola virus is deadly virus, which is extremely contagious; the disease is now completely eradicated.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

Whether all the laboratories stores of smallpox viruses be destroyed.

Introduction:

Variola major is a classic small poxvirus, which has a wide spectrum of infection. Virus takes 12 days of incubation period, it enters in the body through esophagus and reach to lymph node and after multiplication they move to the other parts of the body, through blood stream

Summary Introduction

To determine:

Whether elimination of all the laboratories stores of smallpox viruses really be extinction if the virus DNA has been sequenced and DNA can be synthesized.

Introduction:

At molecular level the DNA can be decoded into the protein. Molecular evolution is the study of changes in genes and proteins throughout different mechanism of genomics, which helps to revive the DNA and protein if corresponding sequence is known.
