Really???? Did I state that???? Let's see. I reviewed the post and hmmm, yep, I NEVER SAID THAT

It was an ANOLOGY (yep, sure it's short but still a 4 syllable word so I understand the confusion).
They are both viruses from 2 different viral families
They both had effective vaccines
they were both primarily spread by aerosols/droplets
Smallpox had a small # of breakthrough cases that were mild
COVID has a small # of breakthrough cases that are also milder (but with the new variants the final numbers are not yet in)

Smallpox had no animal reservoirs
And to my knowledge, smallpox did not have a hoard of anti-vaxxers

And like all pandemics, this one will end as well, and much quicker than hundreds of years ago due primarily to VACCINES

Get it now?
