As late as the 18th century, smallpox killed some 400k Europeans annually. The overall mortality rate was 20%-60%. Among infants, it was more than 80% - one of the reasons for the overall life expectancy of 20-30 years. The disease was eradicated in 1980.https://buff.ly/2ES81El

If you see the life expectancy curve reaching ever neither, you can't but wonder, when is that curve coming down? My guess is within 10years.
