How do Louis Pasteur and Edward Jenner help us keep well?

Edward Jenner noticed a trend that farm maids who milked cows were oftentimes immune to smallpox. After some research, he identified that cowpox (caused by a cousin of the smallpox virus) infected the maids and was the cause of their immunity. Jenner then experimented with cowpox on a child (history is unclear on whether this was his son or a neighbor). When he later exposed the child to smallpox, nothing happened. Thus Dr. Edward Jenner developed a method to immunize people from smallpox (which was later named vaccination by the French). Louis Pasteur developed the process of pasteurization, a process of heating food to a specific temperature for a certain amount of time then cooling it immediately to kill off microorganisms (and slow their growth) in the food. Both these processes help to keep us safe from pathogens.


Who discovered that people who contracted cowpox did not contract smallpox?

in 1796, a man named Edward Jenner said this and everyone thought he was crazy but he was right. He took a dairy maid who had cowpox (she had a pustule on her hand), took the puss and sliced open a little boys arm and infected him with cowpox. Then he put smallpox puss in the cut and the boy didn't get it.in 1796, a man named Edward Jenner said this and everyone thought he was crazy but he was right.

His discovery laid the foundation for modern vaccination practices.
