A total and cowardly non sequiter. Why did smallpox vanish at the same time that far more people were living in unsanitary condidtions than in the past?

You are either very confused or purposely deceptive with your assertion that people are living in less sanitary conditions than they did hundreds or thousands of years ago. Did you attend a public school?

Naturally occuring smallpox ended before vaccines stopped being routine.

So you admit that cases of smallpox since the 1800's are CAUSED by the vaccine?

By your logic, with more vaccines and more people living in unsanitary conditions in the Third World, we should have seen increases in smallpox in the 1960s and 1970s, instead of the actual decrease observed.

Read the material that I posted, as the facts disagree with your contention.

Smallpox was around for 3,000 years before the first inoculation.
Lie again.

So we're going to start throwing words like "lie" around? Ok, it is YOU that is lying...

From

"Dhanwantari, the Vedic Father of Medicine, and the earliest known Hindu physician, who lived about 1,500 B.C., is supposed to have been the first to practice inoculation for smallpox. It is even stated that the ancient Hindus employed a vaccine, which they prepared by the transmission of the smallpox virus through a cow." (History of Inoculation and Vaccination, pp. 6, 13)

Answer the question directly, quack. You keep posting that smallpox is caused by inoculations, vaccines, and unsanitary conditions.

Why, with a massive World Health Organization vaccination campaign in the unsanitary Third World in the 50s, 60s and 70s, has smallpox disappeared?

By you're tinfoil reasoning, we should have witnessed the greatest smallpox epidemics of all time. The opposite has occurred.

You're flat out wrong. Throughout much of the Third World, hundreds of millions of people breathe, drink, and bathe in human filth. Why isn't there any smallpox in these places?
