The Maine Millennial: Vaccine offers welcome relief
A dose of protection is a great way to start a new, post-COVID year.

I like vaccines. I’ve always been a big fan, ever since I read the story of Dr. Edward Jenner in the children’s encyclopedia we kept in the family room. I thought he was so smart, and the little boy who received the very first smallpox inoculation, James Phipps, was so brave. (Technically the history of inoculation and vaccination is more complex and detailed, but I was 7.) And that success grew into what I believe to be the most significant scientific development in the history of humankind (after the taming of fire and the invention of the wheel, I guess) – the ability to train our own immune systems to fight off disease without actually suffering from the disease.

FOR thousands of years, smallpox was one of the great scourges of mankind. It left millions dead and many of those that survived terribly disfigured and often blind. In 1798 a Gloucestershire doctor, Edward Jenner, inoculated a related disease in cattle – known as cowpox – into the arm of James Phipps, the nine-year-old son of his gardener. Some weeks later he exposed him to the smallpox virus but he never developed the disease. He called his process vaccination, from the Latin vacca for cow. In 1853 Parliament passed the Vaccination Bill requiring every child to be vaccinated, with a penalty of £1 for parents who refused to do so.
