In May, 1966, the World Health Organization was
authorized to initiate a global campaign to eradicate
smallpox. The goal was to eliminate the disease in one
decade. Because similar projects for malaria and yellow
fever had fad failed, few believed that smallpox could
actually be eradicated, but eleven years after the initial
organization of the campaign, no cases were reported in
the field.
 The strategy was not only to provide mass
vaccinations but also to isolate patients with active
smallpox in order to contain the spread of the disease
ant to break the chain of human transmission. Rewards
for reporting smallpox assisted in motivating the public to
aid health workers. One by one, each smallpox victim was
sought out, removed from contact with others, and
treated. At the same time, the entire village the victim
had lived was vaccination.
Today smallpox is no longer a threat to humanity.
Routine vaccinations have been stopped worldwide.

 Angela’s story
Last Saturday I got up very early, took a bath and had breakfast with my parents and my brother,
Simon. After breakfast we took bus number 12 to the zoo. It was too crowded, so we went to the
market instead and bought some books, art paper and crayons.
