Most of those plans really are meant for a natural spread -- what are they going to do, when, by the time they find out it's smallpox a few thousand people are infected all over the US?

The ONLY realistic solution is to allow people to get the vaccine voluntarily, which would create some amount of "herd immunity", protecting those who don't have it and slowing the spread.

Yeah. Picture someone at a newsstand at Ohare, or JFK airport handing out change which consists of smallpox impregnated one dollar bills. How would you quaranteen that?
