Yes, Edward Jenner's work on vaccination was widely accepted by the scientific community, particularly after he successfully demonstrated that cowpox could protect against smallpox. His 1796 experiment laid the foundation for immunology and vaccination practices. While there was initial skepticism, further studies and the eventual decline of smallpox reinforced the validity of his findings, leading to broader acceptance and the eventual global vaccination campaigns. Jenner is often credited as the father of vaccination for his pioneering contributions.
