Jenner is born in Berekely, England to Reverand Stephan and Sarah Jenner.
-
On his 14th birthday, Edward went to work with Mr.Ludlow. Jenner followed the surgeon around pulling teeth, amputating, etc.
-
John Hunter was a very expirienced surgeon and taught Edward almost everything he knew.
-
While Edward was studying with Mr. Ludlow, he talked to a milkmaid named Sarah about how the smallpox had hit that town but she wasn't affected. She said she thought it was because she already had cowpox.
-
When John Hunter finished teachingEdward everything he needed to know, Jenner went back to Berekely and became a country doctor.
-
This is when people started panicing about smallpox again. This is also when Jenner becomes reinterested in what the milkmaid Sarah told him.
-
Jenner had finally finished his studies and was ready to start vaccinating people when all of a sudden cowpox disappeared. It vanished from dairy farms everywhere nearby. But Jenner kept everything in order in case it returned and sure enough it did. Here's how the vaccination would work. Jenner would take the cowpox pus and inject it into someone. Then, once the person got the cowpox and had fully recovered (a month or two) Jenner would then inject the smallpox into them and see if they got it.
-
Jenner had finally done it. After years upon years of studying, Jenner had actually put into play and proved things about vaccination. The 8 year old boy, named James Phipps, was the son of one of the people that had worked for Jenner in the past. The cowpox disease was taken out of a 19 year old milkmaid named Sarah Nelmes.
-
Jenner got 20,000 dollars to send information to other doctors around the world, to keep the vaccination process going, to travel to teach doctors, etc.
