Wann ist es genug für eine Reisewarnung, liebes @AuswaertigesAmt? Oder gelten für westliche Länder andere Regeln?

Experts believed three nations (Russia, Iraq, & North Korea) held stockpiles of #smallpox in 1999.

In retrospect, Ken Alibek's claims about Iraq were not substantiated after the search for WMD.

Government Report Says 3 Nations Hide Stocks of Smallpox

Government officials say secret Federal intelligence assessment late last year concluded that Iraq, North Korea and Russia are probably concealing deadly smallpox virus for military use, and that this was important factor in Pres Clinton's recent decision to reverse course and forgo destruction of American stocks of virus; say evidence included disclosures by senior Soviet defector, blood samples from North Korean soldiers showing smallpox vaccinations, and fairly recent manufacture of smallpox vaccine by Iraq; besides United States, only Russia retains openly declared stocks of virus now, 20 years after disease was declared to be eradicated; intelligence assessment concludes Russia is hiding additional stocks of virus at military sites; American experts have clashed bitterly in recent years over whether virus exists outside two official repositories, in Russia and in United States (M)

Trump’s W.H.O. Exit Throws Smallpox Defenses Into Upheaval

Health experts see his retreat from international cooperation as disrupting the safe-keepers of one of the world’s deadliest pathogens.

The worst-case scenario is #smallpox by a factor of 100.

R ~6, 0.3% immunity; 30% case fatality rate. That would be ~100M deaths for the US without a competent vaccine distribution campaign.

They're building concentration camps.

@HelenBranswell

The US CDC has suspended testing services for #smallpox.

And the Department of Homeland Security has mothballed their labs due to staffing issues too.

They seem to be setting up the same no tests/no cases playbook, but for a #genocide

@ProPublica

If our enemies are eliminating vaccine access, the only model that matters is #smallpox

If they did all the math, they'd see only one vaccine matters as well.

It's increasingly likely none of the simulations they ran will be remotely accurate because a good portion of the population will already be gone.

@BruceMirken

Do all the experts quoted think #smallpox was eliminated?

Are they ALL completely ignorant of the Soviet/RF bioweapons program?

Not ONE expert can connect the dot between drug-addled compromised Russian assets dismantling immunization programs and our national security?

$1T a year on defense, and ~17% of GDP on healthcare and nobody wants to solve the puzzle?

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.
