Edward Jenner and the Battle Against Smallpx
Smallpx used t be ne f the wrst glbal diseases. It killed millins f peple in histry. Hwever, we d nt hear much abut it anymre. Why? Because it is n lnger arund in nature. This happened mainly because f the wrk f Edward Jenner (1749-1823), an English dctr and scientist.Jenner did nt have an easy childhd. His parents died when he was yung, and his elder brther raised him. It was difficult fr him t d
well in schl, but he had a passin fr nature. At 13, he became an apprentice t a dctr fr eight years. An apprentice is a yung persn wh learns a jb by wrking fr smene else. It was hard fr dctrs t be well-respected at that time because mdern medicine had nt fully develped. When he was 21, he studied at a hspital in Lndn.After he finished his studies, Jenner went back t his hme in the cuntryside because he liked it mre. There, he became a family dctr and peple started t hear abut his gd wrk. In his free time, he cntinued t d research and study nature.
It was while wrking as a dctr that Jenner discvered that milkmaids—wmen wh milk cws—rarely gt smallpx. They ften gt cwpx, a disease like smallpx, but these milkmaids did nt get very sick and they did nt die. He wndered: Dmilkmaids get prtected frm smallpx just because they ften get cwpx?T test this, Jenner came up with the idea f first giving sme peple cwpx, then giving them smallpx. These peple did nt get the smallpx! After many ther tests, he realized that cwpx culd actually be used t prtect peple frm getting smallpx.
Jenner invented a new wrd t describe what he hadcreated:“vaccine". The wrd cmes frm the Latin wrd fr “cw". It was wnderful that, because f Jenner's wrk, smallpx is nt arund anymre andpeple n lnger die frm it. His pineering research has been used t create vaccines fr ther diseases.
