How did edward Jenner's invention help people?

His invention helped people because he made a vaccine to prevent smallpox, a deadly disease that killed lots of people. He did this by injecting cowpox(a mild form of smallpox)into a healthy hand. This gave immunity to the smallpox that he would later inject to the hand. His invention of the vaccination was a great success as people were still dying of the disease called smallpox so everyone would have done anything that remotely cured them of the horrid disease.
