La estéril búsqueda del cowpox para perpetuar la vacuna contra la viruela

A finales del siglo xviii el cirujano inglés Edward Jenner (1749-1823) propuso la inoculación de la viruela de las vacas (cowpox) como método para prevenir la viruela humana (smallpox). La publicación de sus observaciones constituye la primera inoculación de un virus atenuado y el inicio de la vacunología como disciplina científica. La rápida difusión que obtuvo este hallazgo llevó aparejado un interés de los vacunadores por localizar vacas afectadas por el cowpox con el fin de mantener activa la vacunación de forma autóctona. Se hicieron también ensayos buscando la reproducción del virus en otras especies animales. Ninguna de estas iniciativas obtuvo el éxito esperado.
