Excerpt from book: VACCINE INOCULATION. I. ON THE COMBINED INOCULATION OF THE VARIOLOUS AND VACCINE 1 LU1DS- A. SERIES of observations and experiments, made during the years 1799 and 1800, enabled me to account for the frequent occurrence of pustules after Vaccine Inoculation, as first conducted by Dr. Woodville, and for some other appearances at that time thought anomalous. In a report on this subject published at the end of the year 1800, I stated, 1. That when a person was inoculated with Vaccine and Variolous matter about the same time, both inoculations proved effective; for the Vaccine Vesicle proceeded to its acme in the usual number of days, and the maturation of the Variolous Pustule was attended with a pustular eruption on the skin. On Diseases in London, page 316. B 2 2. That 2. That these effects took place, without much variation, in all cases where the interval between the two inoculations did not exceed a week; but 3. That when Variolous matter was inserted on the 9th day after the Vaccine Inoculation, its action seemed to be wholly precluded. The following question was subjoined: Do the Variolous and Vaccine virus, under the circumstances mentioned, act independently, or do they controul each other's operation? The answer ran now be given from many collateral authorities, which confirm my own extended expe rience: ?The Variolous and Vaccine fluids, inoculated about the same time, do restrain the action of each other on the human body, so that, in some cases, the Vaccine Vesicle is smaller than usual and has a very slow progress, in other cases, theareolais scarcely perceptible, while, in others, it islargebut premature, ?and the Variolous eruption consistsconsists of hard distinct shining pustules, which have but little inflammation round them, and which se...
