considering, neither smallpox, nor polio, were completely

years. and, least we forget, the swine flu death's, etc.
so, don't get too excited, it's just the shrub, trying to

Where is smallpox and polio making a comeback?
Smallpox is no longer found in the general population.
Polio is, mostly in some of the poorer countries. Given the easy
of owrld travel it seems pretty obvious that kids in the USA
should get their shots.
According to this web site world eradication is getting close.
Polio cases for 2004 as of week of 22 June 2004 :
Global cases of poliovirus: 333
Polio-endemic countries
Nigeria 257
Niger 18
Pakistan 15
India 13
