Letter written by 'father of vaccines' could sell for £8,000 | Bradford Telegraph and Argus

A letter written by the father of vaccination Dr Edward Jenner to a fellow physician who had supported his pioneering work is expected to fetch up to £8,000 at auction.
In 1798, Dr Jenner published his study of the cause and effects of the disease now known as cowpox and how it could act as a vaccine for the smallpox virus.
Four years later, he wrote to Dr John Glover Loy, a Whitby-based doctor, to thank him for his own work.
