Smallpox was completely eradicated in 2011 and polio, down to several hundred cases in 2012 and corralled only within Nigeria, Pakistan and Afghanistan, should be the next. The major obstacle: Taliban, in 6/2012, ordered to kill all polio vaccine-inoculating field workers unless U.S. stops drone attacks on Taliban's leaders. We probably should count our blessings since not all human beings are created equal.
