How did Edward Jenner find out about microbes?
he didn't, he found out about smallpox
What did edward Jenner do to find a cure for smallpox?
No: he created a vaccine against smallpox. This eventually resulted in the successful Intensified Smallpox Eradication Programme, involving the extensive distribution of the vaccine. In July 1978, the World Health Organization announced the successful eradication of the smallpox strain Variola Minor. The last natural case of the more deadly strain, Variola Major, had occurred several years earlier, in 1975.
Where can one go to find information on a smallpox vaccine?
The website for the centers for disease control and prevention has information about the smallpox vaccine. It will inform you what smallpox is, what are the symptoms, and why you should get the vaccine.
What was edward Jenner's contribution to science?
Edward Jenner was born in 1749, in Berkeley. He wanted to get rid of small pox for ever so he carried out a simple experiment, which turned out to change everyone's lives for the better. Edward Jenner noticed that cows sometimes got a disease called cowpox. Because the milkmaids had to milk the cows, they often also caught cowpox…but it didn't seem to harm them. Edward Jenner was intrigued - milkmaids that had caught cowpox never seemed to catch the contagious and deadly smallpox, which thousands of people died from. Edward Jenner came up with a theory, that cowpox prevented people from getting smallpox. To test his theory, Edward Jenner needed to find someone who was young and who hadn't caught smallpox or cowpox before. He found a boy called James Phipps (aged 8) and explained his idea. Edward Jenner then took some pus from a milkmaid's cowpox and rubbed it into two small incisions on James's arm. Soon after, James became ill with cowpox but the symptoms didn't last long. 6 weeks later, Jenner took some pus from a smallpox victim and again put it into James's cuts. However, this time James didn't catch the disease. Cowpox was called vaccinia so he called his invention the vaccine.
How was the first vaccine created?
It was on May 14, 196, that Edward Jenner from Berkely, Gloucestershire, England first atempt to create a vaccine. He extracted the contents of a pustule fro the arm of a cowpox infected milkmaid, Sarah Nelmen, and injected it into the arm of eight-year-old James Phipps. As Jenner expected, immunization or vaccination with the cowpox virus caused only mild symptoms in the boy. When he subsequently inoculated the boy with smalllpox virus, the boy showed no symtomps of disease. The procedure is repeated to many paptients. By 1800 the practice is known as variolationhad began in America and by 1805 Napoleon Bonaparte had oredered all French solders to be vaccinated.
What gave Edward Jenner the idea to cure people?
Edward Jenner saw how milkmaids didn't have smallpox because they had cowpox, and didn't die. So he gave a boy a dose of cowpox and he got ill, but didn't die and then he gave him a dose of small pox and he didn't die because he had had cow pox already. (phew!)
Impact of smallpox vaccine?
The idea and creation of a smallpox vaccine greatly impacted our views of science today. The creation of the vaccine has enabled people to live longer and healthier lives and enabled new studies in this area of science.This was also the first vaccine to be made and this lead to study on more ways different vaccines combat other diseases such as chicken pox etc. This is my first response so it may be a bit lacking in structure and wording, hope you find this helpful.Cheers
What did people think caused smallpox?
He noticed that milkmaids who had suffered from cowpox didn't suffer smallpox, this lead him to believe that the cowpox prevented smallpox. He tested this on James Phipps, he infected the boy with pus from a milkmaids cowpox boil, he caught cowpox. Jenner then infected the boy with smallbox, but Phipps didn't catch it. This was the first inoculation. Jenner was given grants to find other inoculation's, but failed as he was unsure why immunity was given. It wasn't till Pasteur's (anthrax and rabies vaccines) time that other vaccines were discovered.
What type of dinosaur did Edward Jenner discover?
he didnt find a dinosaur he figured out that people who had cow pox were immune to small pox. after this people discovered vaccinations.
Why is edward Jenner's work important to the history of medicine?
I am not sure who in their right mind would entirely believe something so absurd when history shows that it was Edward Jenner who did the research and work. Though moving on past the bad spelling and poor grammer in that answer i believe that his work was important because it spear-headed vaccination and research of vaccinations in England.Before there was no actual proof and only rumours that cowpox could make humans immune to smallpox, though Edward Jenner proved it with his research and even several tests on different subjects (Details can be found in wikipedia i believe). This made other scientists and doctors in effect start their own research for vaccinations for other deadly diseases off the base of Jenner's own, he became the first "immuniser" using knowledge that recovering from a mild form of disease gives human beings protection.So overall, it would be said that his work was so important because it made us look differently at how we could cure and strengthen our bodies against these illnesses. Even with old ideas we could use them to find cures for the diseases of today, such as AIDS for instance which is a common problem.I hope this helped, as i too was looking into Edward Jenner and his work.~Barrbossa_it is to get you understand the germs of germology to kill you by killing edward Jenner or so ma great granauntmother said. Edward died inchildbirth alony with his ma and then his father and son thomas made the discovery not him as everyone thinks, doctors have discovered that the chil that died but did'NT ,thomas was, actually edward jenners.by modern day scientists of Edward Jenner association.True!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
