Answer 1

Answer:

Jenner had no knowledge of what caused smallpox or why exposure to cowpox was protective, but he spent the rest of his life promoting his method and supplying dried cowpox matter to people all over the world. The term vaccination is derived from vacca, the Latin for cow, reflecting its origins in Jenner's experiments.
