In the 1700s, there was no specific treatment for smallpox; however, the practice of variolation was used to prevent the disease. Variolation involved intentionally infecting a healthy person with material taken from a smallpox sore, which could provide immunity. This method was risky and could lead to severe illness or death, but it was the primary means of controlling outbreaks before the development of the vaccine by Edward Jenner in 1796. Jenner's vaccine eventually led to the global eradication of smallpox.
