Yes, the historical sickness known as smallpox, and many more, such as pnuemonic plague, are likely to make a comeback when ancient carcasses thaw out. WIth the rapidly changing climate, new types of bacteria are also likely to form, thus forming a deadly sickness that could likely be transported world-wide by jets and planes. Hopefully the new bacteria won't be too harmfull, but small pox and pnuemonic plague sure will, especially if we don't make changes now.

Smallpox was eradicated. The only samples to exist are located in laboratories.

The only way for smallpox to come back is if the US or Russia decide to attempt biowar, and plague is treated with antibiotics easily.

"sorry, i try to stick up for you but thisi s just silly" As fast as the ice is melting, sickness frozen in by the ice will be released; thus reproducing and making a comeback. How is that silly?

Being frozen kills cells, and i dont think most viruses survive long outside their host anyways.

"Being frozen kills cells, and i dont think most viruses survive long outside their host anyways." Smallpox lasts a long time, and viruses do last a long time outside there host, they are just inactive.

Smallpox only occured in humans and it was eradicated. You don't find frozen humans all that often, especially ones that had smallpox. Even more unlikely that the particles are still able to infect.

Pnuemonic plague still exists and it is treatable.

And evolution guarantees that new deadly diseases will come and will kill with or without global warming.

Inside a rotting body, smallpox can last quite a while.

Fatalities would still stay under 100 even in the worst case scenario, sad, but not significant.

Yeah, ok. I believe you. This is so likely to happen and we must do something to stop frozen human bodies with smallpox from thawing in glaciers which are pretty much almost gone in Montana.

Also, when it did exist, smallpox was very easily treated and had a pretty good prognosis. It was eradicated through vaccination. Even if it did exist in frozen human bodies, which it doesn't, then it wouldn't even cause any loss of life.

The chances of some terrorist releasing the Small Pox samples is higher than what your saying, worry about that before melting ice.

Everyone handling this dead body would survive because they would all be treated. Immediate treatment upon the first signs of infection succeeded 99% of the time.

This post was just an example of what global warming is doing to the planet, and its true that the glaciers are almost gone so...

BECAUSE IT WAS HARD TO TREAT!

Yeah, hundreds of years ago it was hard to treat, like every other disease. In the 20th century it was easily treated and a mass treatment and vaccination programme resulted in its eradication. Do you even think logically about anything you type out?

We're not in the medieval ages, diseases won't just pop out of nowhere every now and then. We're clean, we use lots of soap, and eat with utensils.

of course they do not pop out of nowhere.
some diseases are created by human or evolve through nature.

George Washington didn't die from smallpox. No USA president has.
