I am impressed that lately so much effort has been put into reengaging w/ the history of smallpox. This hasn't necessarily been driven by new paleogenomic work (though that is fascinating: bsky.app/profile/moni...). Rather, I suspect it's b/c it's such a visible disease & carries present resonance.

So this sort of weird innumeracy with a lot of people drives a belief that the tech is making us live longer -- and to a degree it is! But the effect of, for example, fewer women dying in childbirth or not dying of smallpox as a kid is lost. (Dunno about you, but I got a smallpox vax)

Boy 2 decided to depict a smallpox victim with his pumpkin. The body is a homegrown mangelworzle. Gothic vibes and infectious diseases are two of his favourite interests.

Stop defending stupidity. Yes, it has, in fact been the result multiple times. My mother is a retired nurse who grew up in PA Amish country and told me about a smallpox outbreak caused by Amish during WW2. Sure enough, I looked it up. From the NYT:

Smallpox killed around 300 million people in the 20th century. Vaccines wiped it off the planet. Polio cases are down over 99% since 1988. The hard-hat joke was the argument: you wear protection because the falling bricks don't care about your freedom.
