Biography:
Benefactor of mankind
How listening to a milkmaid's story can change the world.

Edward Jenner has a place among the immortals in preventive medicine. His invention of vaccination against smallpox was the medical breakthrough which saved most lives before the era of antibiotics. Before him, smallpox was a killer disease, the majority of its victims infants and young children. And, except for the skin lesions, there is nothing small about smallpox. In the twentieth century alone it killed more than 300 million ï¿½ three times the number of deaths from all the century's wars and battles combined.

The last reported case of smallpox occurred in Somalia. There, on October 26, 1977, a youth named Ali Maow Maalin recovered from a rash caused by the disease. He was pronounced the last case of natural smallpox in the world. In 1980, as a result of Jenner's discovery, the World Health Assembly officially declared "the world and its peoples" free from endemic smallpox.

Edward Jenner was the sixth and youngest child of the Reverend Stephen Jenner (1702-1754), Master of Arts from Oxford, rector of Rockhampton and vicar of Berkeley, a small market town in the Severn Valley in Gloucestershire.

His mother was a daughter of the Reverend Henry Head, a former vicar of Berkeley. In addition to his church offices, Jennerï¿½s father owned a considerable amount of land in the vicinity of Berkeley.

In 1754, when Edward was five years old, both parents died within a few weeks of each other and he came under the guardianship of his elder brother, the Reverend Stephen Jenner, who had succeeded their father
