Smallpox was an infectious disease caused by either of two virus variants, Variola major and Variola minor.[1] The disease is also known by the Latin names Variola or Variola vera, derived from varius ("spotted") or varus ("pimple"). The disease was originally known in English as the "pox" or "red plague"; the term "smallpox" was first used in Britain in the 15th century to distinguish variola from the "great pox" (syphilis). The last naturally occurring case of smallpox (Variola minor) was diagnosed on 26 October 1977.
Smallpox was localized in small blood vessels of the skin and in the mouth and throat. In the ski

For most of human history, we have sought to treat and cure diseases. But only in recent decades did it become possible to ensure that a particular disease never threatens humanity again. Julie Garon and Walter A. Orenstein detail how the story of smallpox – the first and only disease to be permanently eliminated – shows how disease eradication can happen, and why it is so difficult to achieve.

Smallpox: it's been plaguing mankind for thousands of years, and there is no cure.
Today's video was requested by the following subscribers. If you have any other topics you'd like to learn about, be sure to write your suggestions in the comments section below.
What is it?
Smallpox is an infectious, disfiguring disease caused by the Variola viruses. It's characterized by small, red rashes that eventually turn into blisters filled with pus. This disease is believed to have been responsible for killing more people over the centuries than any other infectious diseases combined.
Where is it located?
The date of smallpox's first appearance is unknown, although it's believed to have first emerged in its endemic form in India about 2,500-3,000 years ago. By the mid-18th century it had become a major endemic disease everywhere throughout the world except Australia. It was consistently killing about 400,000 people in Europe every year at the time. But thanks to advances in medicine and technology, smallpox was considered completely eradicated in 1980 according to the administration World Health Organization.
How will it kill you?
Smallpox is easily transmitted from one person to another. Not only does it cause pustules on your skin, but it also affects its victims with flu-like symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and body aches along with complications in your respiratory system. Lesions appear throughout the mucous membranes of your nose, eyes, and mouth which turn into sores that break open, causing infection, scarring, and even blindness. Overall, it has a fatality rate of about 30%.
How to survive:
Although there is no cure, vaccinations do exist to prevent infection. But its side effects are too high to justify a routine vaccination for those who are at low risk of exposure. For those that are already infected, supportive treatment is required in order to provide wound care and infection control as well as fluid therapy and possible ventilator assistance. The intravenous administration of the antiviral drug cidofovir has also been shown to be an effective therapeutic agent, although this can cause serious kidney toxicity.
Now what do you think is worse and why? Being bit by a rattlesnake? Or being bit by a black mamba?

Top Documentary Films: Is Smallpox Still a Threat?
Biological terrorism. Germ warfare. These words can strike fear into the hearts of the population, as people wonder when the next terrorist threat will arise. The danger of bioterrorism hangs over our heads like a modern sword of Damocles.
We all remember the anthrax scares from 2003, right? Anthrax has certain advantages as a biological weapon. It's a common agricultural disease. It can be easily obtained from Third World countries from blood scrapings off of diseases cattle. It also has a durable bacterial spore form which is convenient for dispersion via aerosols. However, it is not highly contagious; in fact, there are no known cases of person-to-person transmission. For maximum impact, the unpatronized grains of anthrax culture must be inhaled, and getting the right grain size to ensure both dispersion and inhalation can be difficult. These factors severely limit its effectiveness as a biological threat.
What about other pathogens, such as choleral, yellow fever or the ebola virus? These typically present challenges as well. Sometimes, it can be difficult to isolate a sufficiently virulent strain, which is especially important when the pathogen has limited transmissibility. In addition, there are significant engineering obstacles; for example, there is the challenge of dispersing aerosolized germ powders through a tiny nozzle without any clumping or clogging.
Of course, any sort of biological agent is extremely dangerous to cultivate or deploy. This reduces the threat that they present, as only a lunatic would deliberately attempt to handle such weapons. Unfortunately, history has shown that there is no shortage of lunatics in terrorist circles.
This is where smallpox comes into the picture. "But wait!" one might say. "Hasn't smallpox already been eradicated? The World Health Organization embarked on a massive immunization program, finally declaring in 1977 that smallpox had been wiped out." That's only partially true, though. While smallpox is no longer a threat to the populace at large, samples of the smallpox vaccine were still kept in government labs within the USA and Russia.
In 1992, a Soviet defector to the United Kingdom revealed that he had overseen an extensive (and illegal) program for weaponizing smallpox. Another Soviet scientist confirmed this claim, and expressed his belief that unemployed or underpaid scientists may have clandestinely sold some of the smallpox samples to rogue terrorist nations.
Western intelligence agencies have reason to believe that three countries - North Korea, Iraq and Russia - have the capacity to deploy smallpox as a weapon of mass destruction. Other countries are likewise suspected of having inadvertently or deliberately retained specimens of the virus; these nations include China, Cuba, India, Iran, Israel, Pakistan and Yugoslavia.
Smallpox is not highly contagious; however, it can be transmitted through prolonged contact, and the symptoms can be severe. Apart from the usual fever, it can also leave someone covered with hideous pustules (rather like an outbreak of chicken pox, but many times worse) and can produce permanent scarring.

Documentary on Small Pox [Must Watch]
Documentary on Small Pox
Smallpox was an infectious disease caused by either of two virus variants, Variola major and Variola minor.[1] The disease is also known by the Latin names Variola or Variola vera, derived from varius ("spotted") or varus ("pimple"). The disease was originally known in English as the "pox" or "red plague"; the term "smallpox" was first used in Britain in the 15th century to distinguish variola from the "great pox" (syphilis). The last naturally occurring case of smallpox (Variola minor) was diagnosed on 26 October 1977.
Smallpox was localized in small blood vessels of the skin and in the mouth and throat. In the skin it resulted in a characteristic maculopapular rash and, later, raised fluid-filled blisters. V. major produced a more serious disease and had an overall mortality rate of 30–35%. V. minor caused a milder form of disease (also known as alastrim, cottonpox, milkpox, whitepox, and Cuban itch) which killed about 1% of its victims. Long-term complications of V. major infection included characteristic scars, commonly on the face, which occur in 65–85% of survivors. Blindness resulting from corneal ulceration and scarring, and limb deformities due to arthritis and osteomyelitis were less common complications, seen in about 2–5% of cases.
Smallpox is believed to have emerged in human populations about 10,000 BC. The earliest physical evidence of it is probably the pustular rash on the mummified body of Pharaoh Ramses V of Egypt.[9] The disease killed an estimated 400,000 Europeans annually during the closing years of the 18th century (including five reigning monarchs), and was responsible for a third of all blindness. Of all those infected, 20–60%—and over 80% of infected children—died from the disease. Smallpox was responsible for an estimated 300–500 million deaths during the 20th century. As recently as 1967, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that 15 million people contracted the disease and that two million died in that year.
After vaccination campaigns throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, the WHO certified the eradication of smallpox in 1979. Smallpox is one of two infectious diseases to have been eradicated, the other being rinderpest, which was declared eradicated in 2011.
