Do you believe that covid continues because of excuses or weak wills or something psychological? Or that all "diseases" are equivalent? Perhaps I should read more into your confounding of cowpox with smallpox.
Leprosy is bacterial and treated with antibiotics. Same with bubonic plague, if that was next on your list.

I believe COVID19 continues because we have a ~60% vaccination rate in the USA, which is far below the needed vaccination rate to slow down the spread of the disease. A lot of these other diseases brought up have substantial 95%+ vaccination rates, or treatments that can hamper the spread. No disease is equivalent to another. Smallpox and Measles had much higher spread R0 / replication rates. Others are bacterial. Cholera is water-borne and solved with other methodologies.
