( Continued from cur I aft.)
The very accurate inveftiga
tion which thisddordcr has lately
underwent, has tftablifhed fomc
very important points relative
to its peculiar nature, which re
quire to be particularly noticed
as upon them is founded the
prolpcCl of invaluable benefit,
which may arife to the public at
large, from fubdituting the in
noculation of this difeafe to that
of the final I pox.
The following facts may be
conlidered as fully afeertained,
by the faired experiments and
mod accurate obfervations.
id. The cow pox in its na
tural date, or when propagated
immediately from an infeCted
cow to the hands of the milkers,
is capable of affecting the hu
man fpecies icpeatedly to an in
definite number of times, but af
ter the fird attack it is generally
much milder in its fymptoms,
and tfpecially it is much Ids
liable to produce the fever and
general indifpofition which al
ways attend the fird infection.
There arc indances however,
where the fecund, and even the
third attack has been as ievere
in every refpect as the fird, but
they are very rare. ■*-
sd. The fmall pox in a con
fide rable, degree fccures a per
foa from infection of the cow’
pox, and in this rcTpecd appears
to acl in a manner very fimilar
to a previous attack of the lat
ter , difeafe; that is to confine
its operation to the formation
of local puftulcs, but unattended
with general fever. .HcnCc it is
that where all the fervants of the
dairy take their infection from
the cows, thofe of them who
have previoudy undergone tfie
fmall pox arc often the only per
rons among them able to go
through the ufual work.
. jd. The cow pox in its ge
nuine date, taken in the calual
way or by innoculation, when it
has been accompanied with ge
neral fever, and has run its.re
gular courfe,ever after preferves
the perfon who has been infected
with it from receiving the fmall
pox in any manner in which this
didemper can be communicated.
TTiis mod important fa£l which
renders the innoculation with
this difeafe fo peculiarly defira
ble, may be now aderted with
that confidence which is given
by the uniform refult of the mod
candid examination, conduced
with fcrupulous care, carried to
a confiderable extent, authenti
cated by tedimony cf many
years danding. : .
4th. A comparifon of the
two difeafes as to the mildnefs
of their fymptoms, and the ha
zard to life which they may oc
cafion, will fliew a very decided
advantage in favour of the cow
pox, compared with the natural
fmall pox, the natural or cafual
cow pox is both milder and be
yond all comparifon fafer, as no
fatal indance of the cow pox has
ever been recorded. When bom i
difeafes are introduced by arti
ficial innoculation, they are each
rendered much lets fevere , and
here to the cow pox preferves
the fupcriraiiy as a llitcr and
milder difeafe.
sth. _1 lie cow pox, even in it:,
mod virulent (late, is not co.ni
iminlcated by the air, the bieath
by t flu via, or in jhort by any
thing which confUtmes conta
gion in the general eßimation of I
this term , but can only be pro
pagated by the actual contract of
matter from a cow pox pullule,
with h mepait of the body ol
the perlon who receives It. This
fad: is fully and Idtisfadorily af
certaihed. In dairy farms, in- |
feded iervants deep with the I
uninfected ; infants at the bread
have remained with their mo
thers whilß only one of tile two
had the difeafe upon them, and
in no intlance has the difeafe of
the one been communicated by
contagion to the other.
