Cowpox, a skin disease caused by the cowpox virus, is a naturally-occurring phenomenon and was not invented by humans. However, the cowpox virus was used by English farmer Benjamin Jesty and German teacher Peter Plett in 1774 and 1791, respectively, to synthesize a vaccination for the much more dangerous smallpox. The word "vaccination" however, would not be coined until 1796, by English physician Edward Jenner.

What evidence did Jenner get to show that his idea was right?
Edward Jenner's evidence for his idea that vaccination could protect against smallpox came from his observations of milkmaids who had previously caught cowpox, a similar but less severe disease. He tested his hypothesis by inoculating a young boy with cowpox and then exposing him to smallpox, showing that he was protected from the more serious disease. This experiment laid the foundation for the development of vaccination as a key tool in preventing infectious diseases.

When was cowpox detected?
Cowpox was probably known as long as people have had domesticated cattle. However the observation was not made until the late 1700s that infection with cowpox from working with cattle infected with cowpox prevented infection with smallpox. This observation eventually led to the introduction of safe vaccination (using cowpox pus taken from cattle) to replace often hazardous variolation (using smallpox pus taken from humans).
Who can get cowpox?
Cowpox is a virus that causes blisters, similar to smallpox. It was most commonly seen in 'milk maids' - young female workers that milked dairy cows for a living - so it was called cowpox. In the 1800s, a physician noted that milk maids who had recovered from cowpox did not contract smallpox, and the first vaccine was developed.
