That's ok, you can still go on cruises /broken record repeats itself>
Uh...
Crap
This isn’t even tin foilstuff.
Except in bat caves in China. Every disease known to man lives there.
Almost everyone over 50 is vaccinated, as well as certain portions of the military (I hope it’s the most lethal guys and not paper pushers in the Pentagon) as well as many lab workers in high level research labs.
Releasing smallpox would be a super stupid act that would result in severe global backlash to the miscreants responsible. Smallpox has a 50-80% fatality rate in children (the younger the child the higher the rate).
I don’t think anyone can count on the military or law enforcement to follow their orders when their children are dying of the disease they released. There would be a coup and summary executions.
That was measles.
funny how suddenly there are treatments and maybe cures coming along, huh???
"Naturally" occurring, it was. The last known case occurring in Somalia in 1977.
Some interesting history:
The origin of smallpox is unknown. The finding of smallpox-like rashes on Egyptian mummies suggests that smallpox has existed for at least 3,000 years. The earliest written description of a disease like smallpox appeared in China in the 4th century CE (Common Era). Early written descriptions also appeared in India in the 7th century and in Asia Minor in the 10th century.https://www.cdc.gov/smallpox/history/history.html...
By the time the Intensified Eradication Program began in 1967, smallpox was already eliminated in North America (1952) and Europe (1953). Cases were still occurring in South America, Asia, and Africa (smallpox was never widespread in Australia). The Program made steady progress toward ridding the world of this disease, and by 1971 smallpox was eradicated from South America, followed by Asia (1975), and finally Africa (1977).
Surprised me as well.
Why a new drug approval for smallpox...now? And, why was it fast-tracked for approval? What's the hurry?
There has to be much more to this story.
I think you are right. Thanks!
Immigration, both legal and illegal should be at the top of the list for reasons why there are so many cases of multi drug resistant TB in the U.S.
Keshavjee shared 2008 data from WHO indicating that among 27 high-burden countries, China, India, and Russia have the highest numbers of MDR TB patients. It is estimated that 50 percent of MDR TB cases worldwide occur in China and India. Other countries with large numbers of MDR TB cases include Bangladesh, Indonesia, Myanmar, Nigeria, Pakistan, the Philippines, and South Africa.
I hope your wrong too.
But I'm coming around to that conclusion as well.
"Drain the swamp" sounded great initially, but there are just far too many dwelling there and are entrenched for life. Especially, if there is only a small handful of those in power who were trying to do the draining.
Uphill battle with both legs and arms tied behind their backs while blindfolded.
Something's gotta give.
Chances that a civil war will birth a country even nearly as free as the USA once was are probably nil.
There are a LOT of very evil people out there. They have the money, the power and now what they believe is, the momentum.

Hate to rain on your parade, but I am not certain the vaccine is lifelong...Eh have to consider the sources...
Smallpox vaccination can protect you from smallpox for about 3 to 5 years. After that time, its ability to protect you decreases. If you need long-term protection, you may need to get a booster vaccination.
www.cdc.gov › smallpox › vaccine-basics
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Given that the majority of Americans under the age of 35 years have never been vaccinated against smallpox and the great majority of those over 35 have not received booster vaccinations since the early 1970s, immunity to smallpox is considered to be low to nonexistent in today’s population.

It has not come back! It was eradicated, except for samples the US & USSR (and ?) have.
Why would you be surprised with the TON of illegals being set loose in the country!!
I too have a nickle sized scar on my thigh from 82 years ago. I wonder if I still have any immunity after all these years.
Apparently all “wild” smallpox has been eliminated. However, man has decided to cage the beast in laboratories so we still have something to worry about.
Not at all surprised about MDR TB poring into our country. I see it in the medical field in increasing numbers.
However...smallpox?
Yup, that the FDA basically rushed an emergency approval for a smallpox medication IS surprising since there are zero publicly known cases...anywhere in the world.
Much more to this story.
See my post #54...No you likely don’t have immunity.
Eh but as I noted, consider the source.
Wonder if can get some sort of test to find out if have immunity...
