Smallpox was eradicated in U.S. through vaccination. Polio in the U.S. was eliminated due to vaccination. In the early 1950s, before polio vaccines were available, polio outbreaks caused more than 15,000 cases of paralysis each year in the U.S. https://historyofvaccines.org/vaccines-101/what-do-vaccines-do/disease-eradication https://www.cdc.gov/polio/why-are-we-involved/index.htm#:~:text=Polio%20has%20been%20eliminated%20from,originated%20in%20the%20United%20States.
