EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving from 1802 depicts a satirical Gillray cartoon on the controversial practice of vaccination against Smallpox using Cowpox serum. In 1796, English physician Edward Jenner proved the efficacy of this preventive measure, but faced continued opposition from skeptics.
The image captures the essence of the debate surrounding immunization during that time, with scathing satire aimed at those who doubted its effectiveness. Despite Jenner's groundbreaking discovery, there were still many who questioned the validity and safety of using cowpox serum to combat smallpox.
Through this historical print, we are reminded of the importance of scientific progress and innovation in medicine. Jenner's work paved the way for modern vaccination practices and has saved countless lives over the centuries.
As we look back on this piece of medical history, we can appreciate how far we have come in our understanding and treatment of diseases. The legacy of Edward Jenner lives on through his contributions to public health, and serves as a reminder that sometimes even revolutionary ideas face resistance before they are accepted by society.
