Pàgina 18 - While the vaccine discovery was progressive, the joy I felt at the prospect before me of being the instrument destined to take away from the world one of its greatest calamities, blended with the fond hope of enjoying independence and domestic peace and happiness, was often so excessive, that, in pursuing my favourite subject among the meadows, I have sometimes found myself in a kind of reverie.
Pàgina 79 - Phipps was inoculated in the arm from a pustule on the hand of a young woman who was infected by her master's cows.

The virus of smallpox itself has lost nothing of its force in the course of 200 years ; and we are enabled to state a strong fact, with perfect confidence, in proof of the efficacy of the vaccine matter at present, viz. that of more than 70,000 vaccinated in descent with successive portions of the matter originally collected by Dr. Jenner thirty-eight years...
Pàgina 50 - ... slight cutaneous eruption (for this will often render the body unsusceptible, for a time, of effectual vaccination); whether the prevalence of any epidemic disease may interfere with the success of the process; for it has been remarked by several experienced vaccinators, that the influenza of last year did make it necessary to repeat vaccination more than once or twice before it took its proper effect.

Pàgina 42 - always considered small-pox and cow-pox as modifications of the same " distemper, so that in employing vaccine lymph we only make use of means to impregnate " the constitution with the disease in its mildest, instead of propagating it in its virulent and " contagious form, as is done when small-pox is inoculated."* Researches subsequent to Jenner's, and extending to within the last twenty years, have settled this part of the question.
