This article was inspired by the global eradication of smallpox in 1980. Rather than reiterate the recent history of this remarkable achievement, we have chosen to celebrate the event by reviewing the early history of smallpox immunization and the contribution of Edward Jenner, MD, to this endeavor. In addition, we present these historical events within the context of knowledge acquired by modern virologists.
本文灵感源自1980年全球根除天花这一事件。我们并未重述这一非凡成就的近期历史,而是选择通过回顾天花免疫的早期历史以及医学博士爱德华·詹纳对此所做的贡献来纪念这一事件。此外,我们将在现代病毒学家所获知识的背景下呈现这些历史事件。
