Smallpox became the first disease for which there was an effective vaccine in 1798 when Edward Jenner showed the protective effect of inoculation (vaccination) of humans with material from cowpox lesions. Global eradication of smallpox was certified by an international commission on December 9, 1979, and endorsed by the General Assembly of the World Health Organization on May 8, 1980.

During the 20th century, there were a series of campaigns to eradicate rinderpest, a viral disease that infected cattle. On 14 October 2010, with no diagnoses for nine years, the FAO announced that the disease had been completely eradicated, making this the first disease of livestock eradicated by human undertakings.

A dramatic reduction of the incidence of poliomyelitis in industrialized countries followed the development of a vaccine in the 1950s. In 1960, Czechoslovakia became the first country certified to have eliminated polio. On September 20, 2015, the World Health Organization announced that wild poliovirus type 2 had been eradicated worldwide.

Some pathogens are so destructive and so virulent that there is only one solution.

Eurabia isn’t inevitable, muslims are causing trouble now and they only comprise 6% of Europe’s total population. When terrorism escalates and the lack of cooperation with police continues they and their leftwing enablers will be squashed like bugs
