Dr. Edward Jenner - Correct answer ✔is credited with the first successful
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
vaccine in 1796 after discovering that people infected with cowpox were
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
immune to smallpox. With this discovery, he vaccinated a young boy with
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
cowpox and noted the child did not contract smallpox. This is considered the
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
world's first vaccine.

Louis Pasteur - Correct answer ✔Another contributor to modern health
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
practices; born in 1822, a French chemist and microbiologist. His
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
contributions include the germ theory of disease, the development and use of
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
vaccinations, and microbial fermentation or pasteurization. |! |! |! |! |!
Pasteur's germ theory - Correct answer ✔states that bacteria or
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
microorganisms are the cause of infectious disease. The goal to understand |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
the transmission of infectious agents led to the development of vaccines.
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
This method was developed by using the method of using weakened
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
(attenuated) bacteria in vaccines versus strong, live viruses, because strong
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
viruses often produced fatal results
|! |! |! |!
, .As these important goals were accomplished, both public health and
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
community health began to reach more people and improve their lives.
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
Pasteurization - Correct answer ✔named after Louis Pasteur, is the process of
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
killing microbes to prevent spoilage in milk, beer, and other food products.
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
Benefits of pasteurization - Correct answer ✔include the elimination of
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
listeria, Staphylococcus aureus, salmonella, E. coli, and other harmful
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
bacteria; overall disease control
|! |! |!
Shattuck's Report - Correct answer ✔The modern era of public health can be
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
attributed to a document; written in 1850 by Lemuel Shattuck.
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
Lemuel Shattuck - Correct answer ✔He also developed the original plan for
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
establishing the nation's first Board of Health in the state of Massachusetts
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
Shattuck's Report - Correct answer ✔is considered an extraordinary scientific
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
report on public health and the use of health data to support
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
recommendations;
identified public health concerns for the state of Massachusetts— namely
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
poor living conditions and the relationship between health, disease, and
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
sanitation—which then brought attention to the need to establish |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
infrastructure for state and community health departments. |! |! |! |! |! |!
