The #FirstNations people of #BritishColumbia suffered a horrific #smallpox epidemic beginning in 1862 on #ThisDayInHistory when the 1851-built US #PaddleSteamer #BrotherJonathan arrived in Victoria from San Francisco. An estimated 2/3 of the Indigenous population was wiped out.

Ever wonder why the Gettysburg address was short?
On Nov.19, 1863, shortly before giving the address, President Abraham Lincoln experienced a severe headache and chills. He had written the last half of his speech the night before. Two days after returning from the address, he developed a rash of #smallpox. Never vaccinated, he canceled meetings to quarantine for 10 days.
Despite a fatality rate of around 30%, he recovered and issued the Proclamation of Amnesty and Reconstruction on Dec. 8th

The Russians had developed smallpox as a doomsday weapon to clear cities before the US had nuclear weapons.
Given all this administration has done to openly undermine public health and overtly encourage the indiscriminate spread of disease, if Mamdani doesn't have the foresight to vaccinate doctors and nurses (at the very least) it may end up being that none of his ideas or actions end up mattering.
Today in Labor History February 20, 1905: The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of Massachusetts's mandatory smallpox vaccination program in Jacobson v. Massachusetts. There were lots of problems early on with the vaccine. For one, they reused needles, causing the transfer of syphilis from infected to uninfected people. They also had problems with bacterial contamination of the vaccine that made some people sick. On the other hand, because of the global mandatory vaccination program, the disease was eradicated in 1977, the only human disease to be completely wiped out. Keep in mind that as recently as the mid-1950s, over 2 million people were dying annually, worldwide, from the disease.
With respect to personal freedom, the Court ruled in Jacobson that individual liberty is not absolute and is subject to the state’s use of police power. Consequently, Jacobson has been invoked in other Supreme Court cases to justify police power. The ruling led to a mobilization of the anti-vaccination movement and the creation of the Anti-Vaccination League of America. The Jacobson ruling was later invoked to support the eugenicist forced sterilization of people with intellectual disabilities (Buck v Bell, 1927); the federal partial abortion ban (Gonzales v Carhart, 2007); drug testing of students (Veronica School District v Acton, 1995); and, most recently, COVID mitigation mandates, like face masks and stay-at-home orders.

How an 1800s vaccine drive beat smallpox in Denmark in just 7 years.
In the early 1800s, Denmark’s government, medical community, church leaders and school teachers all united to promote the new smallpox vaccine, which led to a remarkably quick elimination of the disease in the capital.

Today in Labor History January 18, 1788: The First Fleet arrived in Botany Bay, Australia, with 736 convicts from Great Britain. It took over 250 days to reach its destination. The penal colony became the first European settlement in Australia. Mary Bryant, with her husband, children and 6 other convicts escaped the colony and eventually returned to England. Many believe the British deliberately brought people carrying smallpox on the voyage in order to decimate the indigenous population.

Marie Antoinette's court knew something about #Smallpox and #Cowpox
#BenjaminJesty knew about the same, and applied it locally.
#Jenner heard about it, tested it, applied it, systematised it, reported it, documented it, and drove it to saving many many lives in an organised fashion.
Yes, we know that the poison prepared from the roots of Autumn Crocus will, in rather small doses, relieve #Gout , but go from that to a standardised preparation.
It's time to consider vaccinating healthcare professionals for smallpox.

The #smallpox virus was certified extinct on #ThisDayInHistory in 1979. Eliminating a disease is a rare feat. This was accomplished via a massive #vaccination campaign. #Vaccines work! Smallpox was responsible for countless millions of deaths, and #antivaxxers are fucking morons.
yea the good old days when people were combining efforts to strive for global betterment and not filling their pockets by deluding folks :,/ 💔
