Als Pocken, Blattern oder Variola (lateinisch variolae), genannt auch Pockenkrankheit, bezeichnet man eine für den Menschen gefährliche und lebensbedrohliche Infektionskrankheit, die von Pockenviren (Orthopox variolae) verursacht wird. Durch ihre hohe Infektiosität und Letalität gehört die Erkrankung zu den gefährlichsten des Menschen. Das für die Erkrankung typische und namensgebende Hautbläschen wird als Pocke oder Blatter bezeichnet. Seit den letzten Erkrankungen im Jahr 1977 in Somalia sowie von Janet Parker 1978 sind keine neuen Pockenfälle mehr aufgetreten; der letzte Fall in Deutschland trat im Jahr 1972 auf. Durch ein konsequentes Impf- und Bekämpfungsprogramm der WHO und anderer Gesundheitsorganisationen wurde erreicht, dass am 26. Oktober 1979 die Welt von der WHO für pockenfrei erklärt wurde.
