Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
In 1959, the WHO set out to eradicate smallpox, an ambitious goal that was achieved by 1980. But this goal wouldn't have been possible without coordination on all levels of society. In this episode of Crash Course Outbreak Science, we'll look at cooperation on the individual, community, and national scale and see how by working together we can improve outcomes during an outbreak, prevent future outbreaks, and even eradicate disease. This episode of Crash Course Outbreak Science was produced by Complexly in partnership with Operation Outbreak and the Sabeti Lab at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard-with generous support from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation.

I still have the little crater mark from the small pox vaccination. These things were mass programs. We just lined up at buses or schools and we're vaccinated one after the other. Same with polio. Everyone got their sugar cube with the vaccine. Or mass screening of tuberculosis. We still experienced these things. I had measles and chicken pox - the vaccination came later. I have a picture of me as a child with measles. Somewhat translucent and glowing with very high fever. - Thank you very much for this series! -

The eradication of smallpox through global vaccination is one of the most inspiring achievements in medicine. However, I wonder if it would be possible today with vaccine hesitancy and easily accessible online misinformation. Is there anything we can do to address this?
