Claim: Bernard Moss came up with the term "virokine" but is most famous for research on the poxvirus, a family of viruses associated with diseases such as smallpox, but not chickenpox which is a herpesvirus.
Evidence: He coined the term "virokine" to describe a class of these proteins that have high sequence identity to human cytokines. Moss is best known for research on the poxvirus family. Poxviridae is a family of viruses. Diseases associated with this family include smallpox. The similarly named disease chickenpox is not a true poxvirus and is actually caused by the herpesvirus varicella zoster.
