E: Also if you're going to wear khakis with a jacket (only in the summer, obvs.) the jacket really needs to be a proper blazer not this weak-rear end sport coat poo poo. :cmon:

E2: Wearing a tie with a button-down collar? Is this really the best game these fuckers can bring?

It's okay if you have any questions.


From Edward Jenner and the history of smallpox and vaccination:

quote:

However, the most successful way of combating smallpox before the discovery of vaccination was inoculation. The word is derived from the Latin inoculare, meaning “to graft.” Inoculation referred to the subcutaneous instillation of smallpox virus into nonimmune individuals. The inoculator usually used a lancet wet with fresh matter taken from a ripe pustule of some person who suffered from smallpox. The material was then subcutaneously introduced on the arms or legs of the nonimmune person. The terms inoculation and variolation were often used interchangeably. The practice of inoculation seems to have arisen independently when people in several countries were faced with the threat of an epidemic. However, inoculation was not without its attendant risks. There were concerns that recipients might develop disseminated smallpox and spread it to others. Transmission of other diseases, such as syphilis, via the bloodborne route was also of concern.

More or less, yeah. I think they used ground up scabs from healed cowpox lesions though, not pus. And then they would scrape the powder into your arm with a sharp little fork thing.

E: oh, well, maybe that was a later development

i ended up doing a presentation on the evolution of the abo polymorphism in humans for one of my evo courses and i learned that different blood types have variable resistances and susceptibilities to diseases; notably, type O was found to be slightly less receptive to infection by the syph
