  4. Prevention of Contact Vaccinia Guidelines • Avoid any contact with the vaccination site. • During normal business hours, refer employee to employee health for local reactions. • Good Hand Hygiene is the most important measure for preventing inadvertent • implantation and contact transmission from vaccinia virus. This includes: • Handwashing with soap and water for at least 15 seconds. • Alcohol hand rubs may be used. • Thorough hand hygiene after direct contact with vaccinee or the vaccination site. • Thorough hand hygiene after contact with items that might be contaminated with live virus, such as bandages, clothing, or linen in contact with the vaccination site. • Site covering for on-duty health care worker vaccinees: • The vaccination site must be covered with a gauze, then covered with a secure Tegaderm • or Opsite dressing. • The vaccinee must wear long sleeves. • BOTH of the above measures must be used until the scab has separated and the underlying skin has healed. • Waste Disposal • Any items in direct contact with the vaccination site are considered medical waste, including gauze, bandages, tape, Tegaderm or Opsite dressings. • These must be immediately disposed into a biohazard container. • Linen • Clothing, towels or sheets in contact with the vaccination site can be decontaminated with routine laundering in hot water. • Immediately bag these items and place into soiled utility. 2
