THE NEW VACCINE THAT IS SAVING
SO MANY LIFES
Finally the cure to the deadliest disease of the time
is discovered: the smallpox.
As you know, lately the smallpox virus has spread very quickly. This is a contagious disease caused by a virus which is characterized by causing fever and the appearence of pus. It can be transmitted through direct contact with infected body fluids or with contaminated objects, such as sheets, covers or clothing.
The English physician and scientist Edward Jenner has discovered last Wednesday the cure for the disease that more deaths is currently causing. He has achieved it by extracting pus from a pustule from the hand of Sarah Nelmes, a milker who had contracted her cow's smallpox, and inoculating it into a healthy 8-year-old boy named James Phipps, who later incubated the disease between the 7th and the 9th day. Eventually, he inoculated him with the smallpox virus, but he didn't get sick since a vesicle had formed at the inoculation points and thanks to that, he knew that he had discovered the cure for smallpox.

On our part, we want to thank Edward Jenner for his great discovery and we hope that many more lifes will be saved.
MY OPINION ABOUT THE NEWS IS POSITIVE.
ReplyDeleteAT THE BEGINNING I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND VERY WELL AS EDWARD JENNER GOT TO FIND THE CURE BUT AFTER SEEING THE VIDEO IT HAS ALREADY HAD ME LESSED UNDERSTANDING IT.
WHAT I LIKED THE MOST IS THE END. IT HAS BEEN VERY WELL TO FINISH THE LAST PARAGRAPH.

About the news,I did not understand the second paragraph very well, but still everything is very well written, the photos are adapted to the text and the video is a bit long but it is very well understood and explains it well.
