LEEDS, December 1.
To the PRINTER of the LEED'S INTELLIGENCER,
SIR,
AS the Practice of Inoculating with the Matter of Cow-Pox, as a Substitute for the Small Pox, is now so generally sanctioned by the Approbation of the highest medical Authorities, from a Conviction of its Utility and Safety, founded on Experience, I am sorry to find the Introduction of it, into this Part of the Country, meet with Opposition rather than Encouragement; from those too, whose Opportunities of acquiring Information on the Subject, might have enabled them more justly to have appreciated its Merits. Convinced, however, as I am of the beneficial Tendency of the Practice, I feel it a Duty incumbent on me to enforce the Adoption of it to the fullest Extent, as not only giving Security for the present, against the Ravages of that most destructive and loathsome Disorder, the Small Pox, but as ultimately tending to the complete Extirpation of it from the Catalogue of human Afflictions. This Object will, I flatter myself, be most effectually accomplished, by briefly enumerating the principal Advantages which the Cow-Pox possesses over the Small-Pox, in doing which, I shall avail myself of the Information already communicated to the Public by my learned and ingenious Friend Dr. Cappe, of York.- (Vide York Herald, September 5th, 1800.) It is stated by Dr Pearson, whose Accuracy cannot be called in Question, that of every Two Hundred Persons who are inoculated with the Matter of Small-Pox, in the City of London, One falls a Victim to the Disease. Admitting this to be an extreme Proportion, I think we shall not exceed the proper Estimate, if we average the Number of Deaths, throughout Great-Britain, in Consequence of the Inoculation of Small-Pox, at One out of every Five Hundred. By applying this Ratio to the Population of the Country, we shall find the Loss sustained by the Community, from this Cause, to be by no Means inconsiderable, nor, in a political View, unimportant. But great as this Number may appear to those who have not reflected on the Subject, it bears no Proportion to the Fatality of the Casual or Natural Small-Pox; which cannot, I presume, under the most favourable Circumstances, be reckoned at a less Proportion than One in Ten. But of the many Thousands who have already experienced the Cow-Pox from inoculation, and even of those who have had the Disorder in the Natural Way, not one decided Instance has occurred, as far as I know, of the Complaint having proved fatal. The Cow-Pox being comparatively so much milder in its Effects than the Small-Pox, may be inoculated under any Peculiarity of Circumstances, (though it is obvious that where Choice can he made, the most favorable ought to be selected:) it is equally safe in the earliest Stages of Infancy, as in Adolescence, or extreme Age; in Dentition; and under every Variety of Climate; and may be inserted, with perfect Security both to the Mother and Child; at every Period of Gestation: All which Conditions are universally unfavorable to the Inoculation of Small- Pox, and many of them attended with extreme Danger. Another Circumstance in Favor of the Cow-Pox, which will have great Weight, at least with the Fair-Sex, is, that, in general, there is no Eruption of Pustules, the Affection being principally confined to the Part inoculated; or, if there should be Three or Four Pustules, as a casual Occurrence, they leave no Marks of Deformity, which is so frequently the Consequence of the Small-Pox. The Opinion is very generally prevalent among the lower Orders of the Community, that, by inoculating with Matter indiscriminately taken from Persons labouring under the Small-Pox, the Scrofula, or Evil, has become more widely diffused. I am well aware that it is an established Axiom with most Medical Men, that no Two diseased Actions of the general System can exist at the same Time in the same Subject; but, whether this Proposition be well founded or nor, or whether the latent Seeds of the Disease are only evolved into Action by the general Excitement of the System, the Assurance is sufficiently gratifying, that we have it in our Power always to prevent these Consequences, by being careful to take the Matter for Inoculation immediately from the Cow; as this Animal is not liable to the Disease, nor indeed to any other, as far as our present Experience informs us, of which the Human Constitution is susceptible, that can materially derange its Functions. The last peculiar Advantage, I shall Notice, which so eminently entitles the Cow. Pox to Preference, is, that it is not communicable in the State of Gas or invisible Fluid, but requires to be applied in the Form of Liquid Matter to an abraded Surface; so that, according to Circumstances, the Degree of its Extension may be always regulated, or wholly suppressed. Upon this Principle it is, that we are encouraged to expect, in Process of Time, as the World gradually divests itself of Prejudice, the total Extirpation of that severe Scourge, the Small- Pox; and, if ever this desirable Event should be accomplished, the Cow-Pox itself, after having conferred Immortality on the Name of JENNER, may be entirely laid aside in Practise, or be reserved, in Gratitude for the Blessings already derived from it, to excite an innocent Fever for the Removal of a more obstinate Disease. Practitioners often complain of the Inoculation with Vaccine Matter not taking Effect� This must be ascribed either to the improper State or Quality of the Matter; to the imperfect Manner of inserting it; to the Infection of Matter erroneously considered Cow-Pox Matter; or to the Unsusceptibility of the Constitution, in some rare Instances, of receiving the Infection.----Unless the Matter, from a true Cow-Pock, be applied in its fluid ichorous State, (in which it is found about the 8th or 9th Day, in those who are inoculated) it will not succeed; neither will it be so frequently effectual, if allowed to remain long dry, before it be used. A slight Exudation of Blood, so as to be just visible, ought to be caused by the Lancet, imbued with recent Matter, to insure its taking Effect. Care should also be taken to discriminate the real Cow-Pock from other Pustules, to which the Teats of Cows are liable, which may be known by its livid irregular Form, its being surrounded by an erysipelatous Inflammation, the Cow being at the same Time indisposed, and the Secretion of Milk suppressed.
When the Inoculation for the Cow-Pox has taken Effect, a small Vesicle begins to appear in the inoculated Part, about the 4th or 5th day after the Operation, surrounded by a reddish or pole-blue Circumference, attended with slight Pain in the Axilla, and a trifling Degree of general Indisposition; these gradually increase till the 10th Day, when the Affection insensibly declines, and in four or five Days entirely disappears; the Vesicle shrivels up, and for the most Part heals kindly; though, sometimes, a Degree of Ulceration remains, which is easily removed by proper Applications. It has been also observed, that a few scattered Pustules occasionally supervene on the drying up of the Vesicle, which, when they suppurate, (though this rarely happens) contain Matter capable of communicating the Disease. If a Rash comes on about the 8th, or not later than the 11th Day, in the inoculated Part, it proves that the whole System is affected; and, the sooner this appears, the more mild, in general, will be the consequent Indisposition.- The Inoculation may be suspected to have failed, if, in two or three Days after the Operation, the Swelling and Redness of the Part are considerable or extensive; though a slight Degree of each is necessary for its Success; if also; with the usual Degree of Inflammation, neither Vesicle nor Pustule supervene, but on the 6th or 7th Day, irregular Suppuration comes on rapidly, producing a festering or crustaceous Sore; though, if these Consequences are preceded by a Pustule, even of one or two Days Duration only, Success may be expected.
I have already inoculated a few Poor Children, who have scarcely been indisposed; and will, with Pleasure, devote an Hour or Two every Morning, to diffuse the Blessing of a Discovery, which in itself is inestimable, among the Poor and Necessitous, whole narrow Circumstances preclude them the Advantages of regular Attendance.
