Smallpox was first diagnosed and described by the Persian physician Rhazes in the 9th century, while the disease was further characterized by Edward Jenner in the late 18th century, who developed the first successful smallpox vaccine. Measles was described by the Persian physician Al-Razi in the 9th century as well, but it was the work of the German physician Heinrich Friedrich von Burchard in the 17th century that helped clarify its distinction from other diseases. Both diseases were later studied extensively, leading to better understanding and eventual vaccinations.

Why are you Immune to Chickenpox but not to Measles?

The virus that causes Chicken Pox is different from the virus that causes Measles. If you receive the vaccination for Chicken Pox and not the vaccination for Measles, you are immune to the virus that causes Chicken Pox but have no immunity against the virus that causes Measles. Thus, while while Chicken Pox will not kill you from Reyes Syndrome, you might go blind from Measles. You should also get vaccinated for Measles. We can be immune to chicken pox as if the mother of a baby has had chicken pox the mother will pass temporary immunity to the baby. You can also have a vaccination. If you have chicken pox once it is unlikely you will have it again. But you can get measles more than once unless you get vaccinated. Measles are also more serious than chicken pox.
