BARACHATTI June 4 - In Patiauna village of Vinda Council in Barachatti block a dreadful outbreak of smallpox is raging. Due to the smallpox so far three children have died and about a dozen children are in its grip. So far, in order to treat and cure the smallpox so far no steps have been taken by the medical department due to which the villagers are angry.
 
Gaya District Equality [Party] chairman Indradev Pasvan has asked the DM to not delay in distributing appropriate medications to the effected children and asked for suitable measures to be taken for protection from this sickness, so that the remaining children may be saved. Mr Paswan said that if this sickness was not quickly brought under control then it might turn into an epidemic. Related Links

Hi Jeff,
 
One of the regular posters to my message board wrote to the CDC. She got an interesting response, and of course, a denial that Smallpox was a problem.
 
The CDC claimed the last case was in 1978, a lab "accident." Hum? I thought that neither the Russians nor the US was working with smallpox at that time. By 1978, Smallpox was declared "dead." We know that the Govt. would NEVER be involved in bioweapons development, so how did it come to pass that smallpox infected a lab worker?
 
Prior to this admission, I was under the impression that the last case of smallpox was that of a civilian in Africa.
 
At this point in time, "methinks" the CDC doth talk with forked tongue.
 
I am not sure that the CDC had been called in by the Pakistanis. The case of a mystery "black" disease killing people in a small isolated village near Moro on the Indus River was to be investigated by a Japanese group. So, after all of this time, why are there NO lab test results to quiet the rumors?
 
The first case of smallpox that I had been aware of was that of two Smallpox cases in Pakistan. (Tando Bago) It was dated April 2001. There never was closure with that case. I wrote to the doctor who treated the patients at Taluga Hospital and never received a reply from him. At that time, I had notified a colleague at Ft. Detrick USAMRIID, whom I thought was a friend and whom I believed I could trust. As soon as I notifed USAMRIID, all news of the smallpox cases ceased.
 
It these reported cases are not smallpox, then why are we not shown test results? Last year, 20001, smallpox cases in Tando Bago should have been diagnosed and test results available. As for this years cases, there should be preliminary test results by now. Promed tried to claim that Ergot was the cause of the mystery "black" disease on the Indus. Ergot is quite easy to identify. Yet, a month later, no test results.
 
I, now, understand WHY anthrax was sent through the mail. It was Plan B. Time line:
 
April 2001, Smallpox suspected in small village, Tando Bago, Pakistan.
 
Smallpox verified??? (thoery)
 
US, CDC goes into panic. April 2001, decide to implement a Smallpox Simulation exercise.
 
Dark Winter June 2001.
 
Result of Dark Winter: US totally unprepared for Smallpox
 
At this time, however, bioterrorism is not front and center on the Congressional agenda. The public also is a problem, in as much as the public will not want to do all that must be done if Smallpox is to be contained. also, very unpopular model Public Health Laws would need to be in place.
 
Plan B or as I call it: Light Summer:
 
A plan was developed that would sufficiently scare the public and Congress into action. This plan, which according to William Patrick III's risk assessment would be of minimal risk to the general public, but would scare the public and Congress into action. The plan, send Anthrax through the mail to designated Congressmen and to the major media. In other words, a bioterrorist event on US soil that really would not harm or kill, but would publicize the risk of bioterrorism. In actuality, the Smallpox cases may or may not have been bioterrorism, but bioterrorism would afford the goal of containing a Smallpox outbreak.
 
It is my opinion that Smallpox, may be in the environment once again. Of course, it could be a mutated form, or even caused by smallpox vaccination testing. Whatever the cause, is irrelevant. The fact is that Smallpox may be with us again.
 
Whether or not, there is ONE way to prove it, that is: Show us some test results that either affirm or deny Smallpox. Thus far, I am not getting any information and no test results are being made public.

FYI - the two outbreak zones you have reported on your website, one in Pakistan and the other in India - are 1,003 miles apart. I was hoping they were border villages but the huge gap between them is ominous if they prove to be smallpox. Here are their locations:
 
Swabi, PK 34:07'00N X 72:28'00"E
 
Barachatti, IN 24:31'00N X 85:01'00E
