Who was the person that started vaccination?

Edward Jenner. He was testing cow pox (nonfatal) and small pox (fatal). He noticed that whoever had one never had the other, and some had neither. He put both into a boy, and then the boy was not affected by the small pox. Vaccine comes from vaccinia (lation) for "of the cow" because the cow pox stopped the small pox from working.
