As far as I understand it smallpox cannot spread until it is put into a human host. Then by the time it becomes infectious that person is dreadfully sick and would not be up to walking around the mall coughing on people.

Well the enemy has shown that they are evil enough to do it if they could do it. But the question is...CAN they do it? And I think the answer is no.
