*May 14, 1796
Early smallpox vaccine is tested by Edward Jenner (1749 - 1823), an English country doctor, when he administered the world’s first vaccination as a preventive treatment for smallpox, a disease that had killed millions of people over the centuries.
In the 19th and 20th centuries, scientists following Jenner’s model developed new vaccines to fight numerous deadly diseases, including polio, whooping cough, measles, tetanus, yellow fever, typhus, and hepatitis B and many others. More sophisticated smallpox vaccines were also developed and by 1970 international vaccination programs, such as those undertaken by the World Health Organization, had eliminated smallpox worldwide.
Jenner's work is widely regarded as the foundation of the modern science of immunology.
