Setting altimeters with no radio
If you look at the MovieTone news reels from the 1950's, the
UN WHO was in Africa inoculating entire villages with one
needle and a gallon bottle of serum. The stopped many
deaths and diseases and also probably spread AIDS to whole
populations.
For those of us born before 1950, we remember that disease
kills.
Many diseases are spread by airplanes, traveling faster than
an incubation period to all corners of the world.
