KEEPING WELL
SMALLPOX AND
VACCINATION
DR.. FREDERICK r. GREEN
Editor of "HEALTH"

TT ODAY. with the world compara-
lively free from smallpox cpl
DENIES one can hardly imagine the
scourge this terrible disease once was
OF all great epidemic diseases, Ii was
the most terrible and devastating in
its ravages Less than two hundred
years ago, smallpox was much more
prevalent than is measles today. 1t
was so common in England that
criminal who escaped from prison just
before the time set for his execution
was advertised as having no smallpox
sears on his face, that being the most
striking and distinguishing character
site about him.
We have records of the unchecked
rtHa4es Of this loathsome !iesase from
the Tenth century down to little
over hundred years ago. when Ien'
ner, an English physician, demonstrate
ed the value Of vaccination with COW
poX as a preventive of smallpox. From
that time, smallpox gradually ceased
to be Of worldwide prevalence. but
has continued to occur in occasional
epidemics
This comparative freedom from the
a sease has resulted in general care
lrssness and disregard OF the value of
vaccination and as a consequence re
ports from various sources show that
there has been recent increasing
prevalence of smallpox.
Experience has proven that there is
only me method of controlling small
pox. That Is vaccination. There is
every reason to believe that if yaccina.
lion were carried out at least twice In
the life of every individual, smallpox
would cease to exist In countries
where compulsory vaccination is en-
forced, records show that where chill
dren have received two vaccinations,
very few cases Of smallpox occur and
that the cases which do appear are a
very small percentage of the entire
population. In these countries, deaths
from the disease have almost disap-
peared
Vaccination. recently and properly
performed, will prevent the occurrence
Of smallpox in most persons, no mat
ter how great the exposure. single
vaccination cannot be positively relied
upon to protect for life, but a second
vaccination within five or ten years
will usually do so. When a vaccinated
person does contract smallpox, its
severity is greatly modified and the
chance of facial Disagreement Is re-
duced to a minimum.
