#7 There are quite a few sects/cults in the US that ban vaccinations, or even transfusions. Faith heals everything, if you're faithful enough (but nobody is).

#8 And right there's the problem.

A 7th Century ideology that wants to take us all back to a time before this dreaded disease (and many others) were practically wiped out.

Polio, smallpox, bubonic plague, cholera, influenza, and many more diseases would become endemic under Islam. Disease would kill more people around the globe than war and poverty would. The world would end in disease in misery.
