        Definitely take your smallpox vaccine before time traveling. They still make them, so it shouldn’t be too much hassle.

            You can get it in Canada. You need to give a good reason to get it, but I’m sure time travel would qualify. If not, just say you’re a laboratory worker researching Smallpox, and they’ll give you the vaccine.
