In 1970, during smallpox eradication efforts, there were six unvaccinated children who became the first known human cases. The first case affected a 9-month-old boy in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (formerly Zaire). The other people, which also included three playmates, were in Liberia and Sierra Leone.
