iv: what was the overall conclusion (years later)

iv. pretend you were jenner. you just injected a patient with cow pox but you want to make sure that they are safe from small pox.
a. what would you do?

Explanation:

Analyze Jenner's historical experiment

To test if cowpox exposure protects against smallpox, we must look at the historical method used by Edward Jenner in his pioneering work on the History of Vaccination. Jenner hypothesized that contracting the milder Smallpox and Cowpox disease (cowpox) would provide immunity against the deadly smallpox virus.

Determine the experimental test

To verify immunity, Jenner needed to expose the inoculated patient to the actual smallpox pathogen. If the patient did not develop smallpox symptoms after exposure, it would prove that the cowpox inoculation successfully provided protection.

Formulate the action

Therefore, as Jenner, the next step to confirm safety and immunity is to inoculate (or expose) the same patient with active smallpox matter and observe whether they remain healthy.

Answer:

To make sure the patient is safe from smallpox, you would inoculate (expose) them with active smallpox material and observe if they remain healthy and free of smallpox symptoms.
