'Globalization' makes airliners a fast way to transmit disease.
i've always wondered what would happen if you just shipped it from DHl, FedEx, UPS, et.sl. and sent it to every large office building as a free 'skin care' sample pack, with hand lotion, scented hand sanitizer, suntan lotion, lip balm. wait a few days and it would crop up everywhere at once and in several strains all at once.
it would solve the distribution problem and keeping the bug alive for long enough problem and if you make the mix mildly smelly - one person won't keep it, they'll pass it or sell it on.
i got the idea from a combination of an old Batman movie and the repeated salad contamination issues in the US of A. We can't stop a simple norovirus or simple common baculus. what happens when someone actually tries? You don't even want to kill everyone - just make them invalids afterwards. I mean, what would happen if 2/3 of the population suddenly needed liver of kidney transplants all at once. the care burden would shut down commerce.
