Edward Jenner
b. 5-17-1749; England
d. 1-26-1823
Edward Jenner, physician and scientist, is famous for his study of smallpox and the introduction of a vaccine that has eradicated the disease from nature. Jenner noted that the milkmaids who were infected with cowpox, did not succumb to smallpox.
Smallpox was a contagious disease responsible for killing an estimated 60 million Europeans in the 18th century alone, leaving survivors scarred, some infertile, and one third blinded. Smallpox is also believed to be the disease that killed nearly all the Native Americans when the European's "discovered" the New World.
