Smallpox
At the height of the 1947 vaccination campaign, from April 17 to April 21, 500,000 to 1 million adults and children were vaccinated daily. The 1947 New York City outbreak was the last smallpox outbreak in the U.S. The World Health Organization (WHO) certified global eradication of the disease in 1980.
