Edward Jenner is considered the founder of vaccines in the western world. In 1796, he inoculated a 13 year-old-boy with the virus that caused cowpox. Since cowpox and smallpox are closely related, the result was a demonstrated immunity to smallpox. Later, the first smallpox vaccine was developed. During the next two centuries, systematic implementation of mass smallpox immunizations culminated in its global eradication in 1979.
