The threads about the WHO's (World Health Orginization) preoccupation with smoking got me thinking. So I pose a question to the smartest people I know; my board buddies!

Anyone know of any disease being cured, wiped out completely, no longer a threat, or whatever on this planet?

I mean gone. No longer exists on the planet?

I'll do some research of my own as well.

It just twists me up that something like smoking is that big of an issue. Aren't there bigger problems/diseases/viruses/bacteria out there?

For example herpes has an entire family of stuff it can get you with. And dysentary and diarhea continue to ravage the third world. Where's the vaccine for that?

We have stores with ailses and ailses of stuff to take for a cold. Even stores that specialize in these rememdies. (CVS, RiteAid, Walgreens, etc.).

Just bouncing that off everyone. All coments welcome.
Yes, even the ones that prove me wrong.
