"From Ancient Times to Modern Science: A Journey through the History of Immunisation" Immunisation, a remarkable medical breakthrough that has saved countless lives throughout history, has a rich and fascinating past. The Soviet cholera vaccination poster from 1967 serves as a powerful reminder of the global efforts to combat infectious diseases. It symbolizes the collective determination to protect communities against deadly outbreaks. The pioneering work of Edward Jenner in the late 18th and early 19th centuries revolutionized immunisation. His portrait by Edward Scriven captures his dedication as a British physician who discovered the smallpox vaccine, paving the way for future advancements in preventive medicine. In San Augustine County, Texas, during 1943, Dr. Schreiber administered typhoid inoculations to safeguard public health. This photograph by John Vachon immortalizes an important moment in American medical history when vaccinations became more accessible and widespread. Another significant milestone was depicted in an oil painting from around 1800 which portrays vaccination against smallpox. This artwork showcases how vaccines were embraced as a means to eradicate devastating diseases that plagued humanity for centuries. A glazed ceramic plaque from the late 18th century illustrates "The Origin of Vaccination, " honoring those who contributed to this life-saving practice. Louis Pasteur's groundbreaking experiments on rabies are humorously caricatured, highlighting his pivotal role in advancing immunology. At the Institut de la Vaccine in Paris circa 1900, infants received their vaccinations under careful supervision—a testament to society's growing recognition of immunisation's importance in protecting vulnerable populations. Jean-Baptiste Jupille's heroic act is captured in a chromolithograph; he bravely fought off a rabid dog preventing harm to other children—an inspiring example of individual courage contributing towards community well-being. An illustration from Harper's Weekly depicts scientists taking virus samples from calves—an essential step towards developing effective vaccines—showcasing the meticulous scientific process behind immunisation.
